If you think driving up to your hunting site on a four-wheeler and then walking a thousand yards is tough, check out this insane video of elk bowhunting British Columbia with Marc Warnke of Outdoors International. The elk in this video hang out on the tops of rugged mountains right along with goats. In any event, these guys put in some serious work to get somewhere special, and if you’re like most elk hunters, the location might boggle your mind.

Why You Can Trust Us to Make Unbiased Reviews and Recommendations

Man Makes Fire has been reviewing outdoor gear since 2011. We buy gear to evaluate and gear manufacturers occasionally ship review units to us to test because they trust the quality of our in-depth reviews. We carefully evaluate the gear in-person and review it only if it is very good, noting if it was provided to us. After the review, we return it, give it away, or use it for longer-term updates. We do not accept any gear in exchange for coverage. We only recommend gear we believe in, focusing on reputable companies, brands, and retailers we trust so that you have a good experience, too. When you buy using the retail links in our guides and reviews, we may earn a small affiliate commission that helps pay for our work. We take pride in delivering the unbiased advice and gear recommendations you need so you can choose the right gear for your own outdoor adventures.
