Head lamps, space heaters, jet boilers, tents, sleeping bags, jugs of clean water... this is so far from what the old-time trappers, hunters, and frontiersmen used to have, yet still a more difficult and badass challenge than most people will ever push themselves through. Nice job
Darn right. "The wolves have been here a long time. Pretty sure there will be elk here somewhere." For anyone who doubts they need to read Undaunted Courage by Stephen Ambrose, the most highly acclaimed version of the trek across north America by Lewis and Clark. They recorded lots of wildlife on their journey like elk and wolves.
Mountain Man didn't have a Swarovski spotting scope,a Stihl chainsaw or the modern clothing! It would be fun to do a hunt with every part of it as they would have done!
Cool video but dang the commercials… pro tip=you stay warm on winter hunts by staying moving. Glassing is good but man just moving through the trees following g tracks is a great way to find cows and spikes. Finding a bull this time of year is rough
Where are your down puffy pants and coat?! In those conditions you NEED serious puffy gear to sit and glass for any length of time as you found out. Stuff with 5+ oz of down fill minimum. Skip all the hunting brands and check out feathered friends, western mountaineering or nunatak. Best bang for the oz. Hunting brands seldom have near enough fill. Of course i almost never wear it while moving, thats not what its for.
Nate's got em on underneath the hardshell jacket! Here he's using some stuff from Browning that's really good. Those companies are sweet too, though. We really like Feathered Friends. Thanks for the comment!
Holy drama queen. I've hunted with kids that didn't cry about the conditions as much as you. And UA-cam has enough of their own adds i don't need to see all your sponsored by junk.
As a Muzzleloader Hunter, this video made my Heart smile. Thank you. 😊

Quit acting like the old-school trappers wouldn’t have used the same equipment if it was available

Lyman Great plains are amazing rifles
This was a fine video. Great work.
Got my muzzloader elk tag every year in idaho

I don’t think mountain man would have expended so much energy as well. Surely those men figured out more efficient methods to save their calories.
Maybe a PLB stuffed in the bottom of the pack ...just in case !
Thank you.

Great video!
Where did you get that hat? I need one.
That's a Stormy Kromer! They have them on their website.
How many grans you put in that front stuffer? Is that 50cal also?
What power/size binoculars is Nate using?
Nate is using Swarovski SLC 10x42
Nice! That’s is what I’ve been looking at getting.
Ok tip. Zippo hand warmers. Boot electric warmers, electric gloves. Never rely on this. It's a save the next 5 hrs warmth. Ice fishing tip.
Was totally hoping for a flintlock rifle not a cap lock
What caliber is the muzzle loader
Lyman Great plains .50 cal
nice video I was wondering why you didn't have Hunter orange on?
Some states don’t require it….especially those states where the hunters can tell the difference between game and humans.

Just saying cammo in winter is all white…
Huuuyyyyyyyyiiii q bien le subieron q no revele la huvicasion para q se puedan reproducir esos venados y ASI tengan su alimentación
I can’t understand why you left elk that you spotted just to go somewhere that you wanted to find more.. but hey it’s your hunt
