Good article sir--well done! I'm also a backpack hunter here in Pueblo, CO. We've been archery/gun hunting elk and deer in the mtns. since '77. The single biggest improvement for backpack hunting IMO has got to be the sip tube. Mine is always attached to my 2 liter dromedary bag, and slips along the side of my pack. This way u're always hydrated, and u don't have to pull your pack off to get water anymore. That's the main thing i wouldn't be without anymore.
