Excellent adventure!

Moose are like big deer - can run jump and disappear silently, folks forget that. My little cousin got an 814# bull in ME this season.

I get cramps in my legs when dehydrated.
Try taking some magnesium for the cramps. I take "natural calm" - it is a powder, about a teaspoon will help the muscles without loosening anything too much.

Yeah, I think moose can actually be more quiet than deer when they want to be. I've seen bulls with 50" of antler on their head tear straight through really thick bush at full speed and hardly make a sound, even a whitetail generally cant pull that off. I think its because they use a totally different gait when running, I've seen tracks where moose briefly bounded like a deer, but have never actually witnessed it. Beyond that, while they aren't anywhere near as smart as a whitetail they can be infinitely more patient... a moose that suspects something is up will often wait totally motionless, for as long as it takes until you make a mistake.

Thanks for the suggestion, I might need to try that powder.
They say millwrights can fix anything except a broken heart, but I've even got a tool that can do that!
