Re: Trip Report: Elk Hunting in Colorado
Great report, OS. Now you know why I live in Colorado, where the beauty and solitude is less than an hour's drive away. You could have used one plentiful resource to stanch the bleeding when you sliced your thumb: snow. Jam the thumb into a huge snowball and the bleeding eventually stops or slows to a tricle.

[/ QUOTE ] Good hint. Cutting yourself in the woods is a drag. A buddy of mine ended up with 4 stitches in his thumb this year after slicing open his thumb dressing out his wifes buck deer. We usually try to carry some kind of first aid kit and I even know guys that carry suture kits and have sewed up their own cuts! Yikes!! Taking out stitches fine, I have done that more than once but putting them in. Not for me!!
