Just when you've thought you had seen it all...WOWZERS!!

That is 100% NUTS! I agree, nice bull and boy is that a crazy story.

Do you know wher the bull is located in the zoomed out or panoramic pic?

Great bull! Did they get more than just the head out? When it comes to elk I tend to hunt uphill only so the drag out is all downhill.
It ain't the size of the gun but the placement of the bullet.

Nope. Just the head.

I read a post on another website by the climber that rapelled down to it. He said the meat was pretty rancid smelling. He didn't say how long it was hanging there before he got to it. It seems like with the cold weather that it would have lasted a day or two. Who nows?

Besides that, I can't see any real way to be able to salvage the meat. There doesn't seem to be any room to get in and quarter it.

It amazes me that the antlers were intact! Nice bull too...
