So, how's walking around at altitude with the pack on? You get used to the altitude yet? I'm doing great. We are in the 8500' range. Last time we hit 12,000'. I'm having no problems with the pack. I've been training with a heavier one for months. I'm in better shape than the two guys I'm hunting with.

It's been a big day. Started off with bacon and eggs. Then we climbed a steep mountain slope and scouted around the flat top. We went back to camp in time for a wind storm. You could see the wall of dust coming for 20 minutes. We had 50 mph wind for about an hour. The tents held up OK. We all held on to my big dome shelter to keep it from blowing away. It took a little damage but luckily I brought duct tape. After the storm passed we sat the water holes and my friend shot his bear. We just had burgers for dinner. What a great day!

We would have loved a bear like that. We saw 4, but no shots fired. I'm pretty jealous sitting on my couch here. I wasn't ready to come home, but it's back to the grind tomorrow.
