Default Moose hunt

Be prepared for possible hot weather too. I arrowed a moose the last week of Sept, 2022...same dates you are going. Daytime highs were in the high 70's F. Luckily I brought a chest freezer, Honda EU1000i generator, vacuum sealer, cutting boards, electric knife sharpener with me. Camp only had one freezer with limited space. I cut and vacuum sealed the entire moose (with excellent assistance from the outfitter's mom) the day after killing it and froze it up for the 18 hour trip back to BC. We were in northern Alberta.

Without the generator and freezer I likely would have lost meat. The totally de-boned and packaged red meat, plus dog scraps off the 40" bull totalled up to 460# on my bathroom scale.

Good luck to you!
