[QUOTE="WyoTex, post: 3086998, member: 69750"] I lived in Wyoming for 18 years from about age 34 until 52. Job moved me to places at low Elevation, 500 to 1200 ft msl. Finally landed a position back in Wyoming (Cheyenne) and now live at 6,000ft. Last year was the first Elk hunt in past 5 years. All but KILLED me. Now I'm 63 and had no second thoughts bout hunting the old haunts. I was embarrassed! Felt like Hell, had no stamina. Hunted at 9,000 to 10,000ft. I knew better, but did it anyway. That was October. I weighed 225lbs. I've since started losing weight and working out. Down to 207 and intend on being 190lbs by October. I WILL NOT REPEAT LAST YEAR'S DEBACLE!!! Heh. Guess I'm not in my 30's and 40's any more. [/QUOTE]
