[QUOTE="Greywolf18, post: 981249, member: 14172"] Hognuts- we will be up there end of Oct and into Nov. We will be going with seven lazy P outfitters. My uncle did all the planning since I was deployed at the time. I know we will hunt muley's from their ranch for 2 days and then horseback in for 6 days of elk hunting then horseback out. Total trip will be 10 days. Thank you everyone for the ideas and recommendations. I was shopping at the right time and hit a lot of really good sales from cabelas and other retailers. I was able to get a couple pairs of First-lite merino wool base layers, wool socks, danner insulated gore tex boots, merrel waterproof hikers (my backup pair), new 0 deg sleeping bag that only ways 3 1/2 lbs (plus I have an issued bivy sack to keep it rdy just in case), some quiet un insulated goretex (cabelas brand that are soft on the outside so they don't make hardly any noise while moving around), and some cabelas microtex shirt/pants. I started loading 165gr accubonds which I will have to get out and shoot. I have an eberlestock day pack already that I use for hunting. I have a fleece jacket that's served me well from NC/VA to Canada on a caribou hunt (my one and only other guided hunt about 5-6 years ago). I also have a thick issued fleece jacket that's served me well all over the world (good thing about deploying all the time, I get new gear to replace worn out ones!). I think my wife is getting mad because everyday when a new package arrives on the doorstep I just get the look....all married guys know the one.... [/QUOTE]
