Outfitter recommendations for NW WY for cow elk hunt?

Upgraded the Tundra
This past year plus, I added a Bilstein lift (5160s in back, 6112's in front) along with a deaver leaf and Roadmaster Active Suspension in the rear. Definitely smoothed out the ride a little and added maybe 1/2 - 1" more lift? Also picked up a GFC this summer. I've used it half a dozen times...- kevine001

Backpack - large or small?
So I recently got my first buck ever. Archery. I've always wondered this question. I use an Alps pursuit pack, it's like a day pack. Holds kill kit, food/water, some limited survival and first aid. No big deal. After I cut up my deer, I could fit two quarters and head on there. It's not...- kevine001

Wife not into "game" meat
First off, I'm no expert at game meat preparation but I consider myself a very good cook. I've made venison stew once, let it slow cook all day. Daughter had three helpings. Wife had one, was not a fan. I've had elk burgers, did not turn out well because of low fat content. Recently, friend...- kevine001

Jet Boil new for me
Just picked up a Jet Boil. Been using one of those metal adapters that screw onto a 1 lb propane bottle for coffee or a regular camp stove. Plan to start using dehydrated food (Mtn House) for the first time as well. For those that run JBs, do you usually take more than one can of fuel for a...- kevine001
