Hello,

Also, wouldn't it be cool to figure out the number of people who have hunted, man hours put it and miles covered for ~400 grams of material!

I was there a few days, saw probably 100 people hunting.

My early estimate would be about 4000 man hours have been used to find ~400 grams!

Simply staggering!
