[QUOTE="Dewey, post: 252638, member: 14606"] Quite a number of five to eight day/night trips usually solo here in B.C. and I still do this at 62, but, I need better conditioning and it gets a LOT harder than 20-30 years ago. I have been in most parts of B.C. and WILL see the rest before I am much older. I have also spent 90 straight days alone, without break a couple of times, in some of B.C.'s most remote and rugged country after heliflights in and lived in a tiny pre-fab plywood shack. I was once fogged in for 31 consecutive days in one of these on the B.C-Alaska border and this remains one of the finest experiences of my entire life. I now am equipped for some 4-6 week solo jaunts into northern B.C. and intend to go this coming summer-fall, alone and with 2 mos. provisions and maybe a "sat phone" to keep my wife happy. It is pretty hard to go for more than 5 days in really tough mountain country if hunting alone; I try to do a 4 day rotation which seems to work for me. [/QUOTE]
