A truly fantastic hunt, one I'm sure you will remember for the rest of your life. I have one question though, have you already started planning your return trip?

Thanks for the kind words gentlemen! Reliving the hunt through a write up takes time, but is a lot of fun to put together.
@Shootist43 Derek was planning a return trip within five minutes of leaving Jackson Hole! However, he's trying to talk his ol' man into coming along next time, which is taking some convincing. I'm ready to lock it back in when they are.
@BRICKBURN I thought I was pretty lucky too, to walk away essentially unscathed. However, within a couple weeks of returning home I developed persistent indigestion that I couldn't shake. I initially chalked it up to work/life stress, but after a couple rounds of over the counter meds and a trip to my MD, with no relief, I was starting to get concerned. On a whim, I went to a chiro/sports medicine doc in January who started to prob around my ribs and found things hadn't necessarily gone back into place where the binos impaled me! A couple therapy/adjustment sessions later I was finally back to feeling normal. Only took four months!
