[QUOTE="Timber338, post: 1053028, member: 33822"] yup ... got the same problem. Almost seems like I never stopped daydreaming after last season and now that I'm going to a new place this upcoming season I am excited and nervous at the same time. Getting lots of new gear, some because I need it and some to cut weight, but nothing too exotic like it sounds like you've got planned. I needed a new water filter, so I went with a Katadyn pro more for flow rate than light weight. I got a thermarest neo air xtherm pad that is only 1.25 lbs. much better than the 6 lb pad I was packing in. :-) Saving up right now for a new tracker ... I think I'm going to go with the Delorme explorer, but dang those things are expensive. My SPOT tracker died in the middle of my elk hunt last year so I'm hesitant to jump back into another SPOT. Lots of new hunting clothes since my old ones were pretty much worn out. Unfortunately with my size i'm somewhat limited in the brands I can buy for pants and jackets. I really should get new boots soon, but they're expensive and I spent my money in other places. Few other things like a new knife and just paired down my gear list to only the essentials. Already stopped drinking coffee so I don't need to pack anything extra for that. and this isn't backpacking gear, but I just upgraded to a Magnetospeed3 which is night and day difference from my old crapper chronograph I used to have. And have a new custom 338 RUM to go with it. :D [/QUOTE]
