ya 100%....i've heard it before but was a bit skeptical so i tried it out about 6yrs ago. Packed into one of my top camps for a 8 day mountain goat hunt had 5 mules and 1 mare and the weather was bad. So bad that we were grounded to the cabin about 6" of fresh snow and fog. If there was ever a time ...

tough to add anything to big mike's post that about sums it up...another huge advantage to the mules is how easy it is to look after them in the mountains.

In Eric Muff's defense i will explain a little further what he was getting at.....I am an outfitter in British Columbia and get to hunt the dogs alot which makes it easier to get a good ...

I have been outfitting in British Columbia 20+ years and have a string of 25 animals. 14 mules and 11 horses. Good qualities in both but definitely prefer the mule for safe mountain travel.
