[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 2268592, member: 61747"] This is basically what I do every year multiple times. I generally guide a hunt or 2 or I scout for those hunts. Doing this for a really long time, insert old dude, I rarely am on the mountain without anything I really wish I had except ice cream. things that don't take a lot of room... 1. Extra boots. I rotate boots throughout a hunt. 2. Emergency poncho. I hate packing rain gear everywhere so I tend to rely on the poncho, ultralight, packs small. A large trash bag works too. 3. Always a reliable fire starter. Fire is the number one thing that can make a bad weather day half way tolerable. 4. Gators- you'd be surprised how much a good gator can benefit you. 5. Battery charger/battery pack/ etc. I carry a spare light weight charger and I have a hand crank charger in camp. It's also a light. Besides the obvious layering of quality clothing etc those are things I like. A good comfy back pack, bino harness, and all the other stuff is just a personal preference type gig. If I can stay warm, cool, dry.... I am generally able to tolerate higher levels of suck. [/QUOTE]
