(Let's not talk about the blown opportunities)
I'm hoping to do a few 2 to 4 day trips with camp on my back. But, I'm also good with hunting out of a base camp with quads or bikes to commute.
I don't have secret spots, nor do I exploit others spots that they take me too. I know it's public land for the most part where we hunt, but I still have a respect level to not hunt someone's honey hole without them.
My main reason for wanting an occasional hunting partner is for 2 reasons (well 3, if you count my wife's concern for me hunting alone). Safety while being several miles back from any access, and to help pack out meat in our grizzly infested mountains.
If you're interested in meeting up for a hunt or two this fall, let me know. I have almost all of Sept off. (except 3 days) I plan on filling the freezer. Fall hunting prep starts now! Fail to plan, plan to fail. Cheers (Oh, BTW, I live in Sherwood Park)

If you wish to get in the back country this spring / summer, I plan on doing some mountain hikes, starting soon, pm if you wish, Im located 45 min south of you.
