[QUOTE="IanCo, post: 2003243, member: 106861"] I hunt solo most of the time. I use the Garmin InReach as well. I try to take my first aid kit with ample stuff to stop bleeding too. Benadryl is another thing to always try to have in the first aid kit. One thing I will add is have extra clothes in your pack. If you do have to hit the SOS button it could be hours before rescue help arrives. You need to have insulation to survive whatever temps are in a 24 hour period. I also carry the little Kifaru sheep tarp too. I do know after quartering my cow elk last week that I never want to solo hunt in grizzly country. And I started carrying a 10mm in a chest holster too. I did have a bear that was much closer than I wanted when I was quartering up my bear a couple of years ago. A rifle 15’ away is too far if the situation escalates quickly. Watch your step and be super careful with knives and arrows, and guns for that matter. [/QUOTE]
