My last two elk (both spikes) I de-boned all of the meat in the field, wrapped in the hide & strapped to a pack frame & humped it out on foot, not the easiest but not a lot of choices for the terrain I hunt.

Back the truck up to it. Put the ramp in place and drag it up into the truck. OR. Drag it to the truck with 4 wheeler. Put down ramp and drag it up into the truck.
Bad back has resulted in a number of different methods of recovery over the years. First solution was:


As the size of critters increased, the ramp became a better solution when transporting off ranch:


but usually use boom to pick up in pasture and transport to camp (both systems use same boat trailer winch mounted in truck bed:


When the critter is in an area not accessible to the pickup, use the jeep with ATV winch/boom on back of jeep to get out of the brush and transfer to truck at camp.
