We highly advise that you schedule a 30 to 60 day aerobic exercise program including bicycling, stair climbing or any "step" and flexibility exercises. Also, schedule 3-5 opportunities for horseback riding. The better prepared you are, the more comfortable you will be and the more fun you can have. Our experience is that the more territory we cover each day, the more elk we will see, therefore the more mobile you are, the better your chances of finding that trophy.

Our suggestions of what you need to bring:
CLOTHING, HUNTING ITEMS AND PERSONAL GEAR
Leather footwear for walking
Extra pairs of warm socks
Felt lined boots/or good rubber ones for snow
Insulated underwear
A light jacket
