[QUOTE="Blacklab1, post: 2301469, member: 117691"] Thanks for everyone's input, I got a lot of good info. I did cut back on some things and added others. I'm under my weight limit and feel I'm a little more prepared. I am curious to see what altitude we'll actually be hunting at. I do have another question though.......what's good enough shape to be in? I'm 53 170 pounds @ 5' 8", I average about 5 walking miles a day working construction and when I get home I try to put in another 2 to 3 miles with 30 to 35 pounds in my pack. I live at about 2000 feet and it's not flat but the hills aren't steep, there's a construction site about a mile from my house with some pretty good sized dirt piles the earth movers built that I climb up and down with my pack and as much clothes as weather allows (it was 80* today). Unfortunately I smoked since high school but for the most part quit about a year ago. Does it sound like I'm close or am I going to be laying on a rock gasping for air? [/QUOTE]
