Travel Trailer/Truck Rental in Wyoming

Your plan could go well or really , really bad. Do an air bnb, motel or tent camp to put the odds of a good hunt more in your favor.
 
Hey guys sorry I went MIA after the thread started I havent had access to the internet since lol but all the advice is good and unfortunately it seems like this may not be in the cards, just too many moving parts. The original plan was Airbnb but we started thinking the travel trailer might be a fun option. I appreciate everyone's input on the subject though, maybe some day I'll be able to work it out another way

Glad you did okay.

For anyone else with that idea that stumbles on this thread - this is from a few days ago and can happen about anytime in WY.

Budget Idea....

Rent a Uhaul box truck and outfit it with an air mattress, 1 or 2 burner campstove, coolers and camp chairs. You could buy them all at Walmart online and pick them up in Wyoming along with 5 days of groceries. Pack your Antelope in the cooler for the plane trip home, UPS the other gear back home or donate it to Goodwill in Casper, Denver or wherever and get a receipt for taxes.

if you are willing to tent camp then you could just rent an SUV with AWD....

I've done this on summer scouting trips for elk. Only I checked my 49 Pound duffle and plastic tote of camp gear and carried on my Badlands 2200 backpack.

Walmart In Laramie sells everything you need and has an extremely nice return policy. For the ultra low budget trip.
 
Would be a cool Fresh Tracks episode or multiple episodes...

Tarmac Hunter – Four sea-level dwellers leave their comfort zones and fly to Wyoming for five days of pronghorn hunting. But there’s a twist: they can only bring two checked bags under 50 pounds each…and a single carry-on.

Once they land, the challenge begins. They must find the most cost-effective way to reach their hunting grounds, set up a base camp, and pursue North America’s fastest land mammal – with eyesight sharper than any predator on the plains.

Success in the field is just the beginning. The ultimate winner? The hunter who returns home with the lowest cost per pound of boneless, packaged pronghorn meat.

It’s survival, strategy, and skill…all measured by what really counts: the meat in the bag.


I live at 17 ft elevation....just sayin' ;)
