First time solo or first time elk hunting?

Used to all the time! Still do sometimes. What aspects are you wanting to know about. I don't backpack in, just hike out and back to truck for the day. Just have to carry enough stuff to get elk broke down and hanging in a tree. My day pack can carry a quarter out, then I will return with a frame pack to pack the rest out.

And be extra careful when you are out there on your own.

When I was younger I hunted solo most of the time. I had a camper for base camp and hunt until dark and then back to camper. It was area I knew well, Marshall Pass.
