If so you should gut it right away to start it cooling down. It is also easier to drag.
I had every intention of gutting in the field before the long drag and had all the neccessary tools with me however, I hit a couple of road bumps on this. a) the batteries in my headlamp were dying, when I went to replace them I dropped one of the new ones in the snow, never to be recovered. With light quickly fading and no lamp field dressing was out of the question; and b) my hands were like blocks of ice until I started the long drag. Next time!
