[QUOTE="Dave King, post: 41837, member: 3"] Thanks guys I've started checking around for food ideas (my wife is along so I'm a little limited) and I'm still mulling over a lighter tent and heater (she'll not be too happy if she's cold). My 60 to 65lbs weight includes my 17 lb rifle, now about that rifle weight [B][I](Chris you out there)[/I][/B][I][/I]??? I may need to do something about that but I only need to hump the heavy weight about 5 or 6 miles (one way) most then it's just a day pack for the daily hunts. Still looking for ideas thogh. I've started carrying a pack on my walks now, we went 17 miles on the Appalachian Trail (AT) between the friday and saturday hikes (25 & 26Jun04). Friday was a 7 mile heavier pack day (~40 lbs for me and ~20 lbs for her) day and saturday we just carried our day packs (~25 lbs for me and ~10 for her). Not easy walks, pretty steep for several miles, elevation gains of 1000 ft seen the norm over some short distances. [ 06-27-2004: Message edited by: Dave King ] [/QUOTE]
