First time was in the Flat Top Wilderness in 2021 during first rifle and 2nd in 2022 during archery. No luck either time but still learning how to DIY Elk. Not the easiest for an Indiana boy who is used to just sitting in a tree.
Interesting to hear about the panel. I'm going to so some test next couple days on the power bank, but definitely will rethink the panel.
Yeah only be bringing on set. Had it on there twice b/c I'm borrowing the 10x from my brother.
Thanks for the insight. I take it a lot people just hang in the backcountry?
I've been kicking around getting something else for water, just the overpacking came to mind.
Thanks for the review and I appreciate it.
-Tablets are part of the emergency kit
-Have considered and will explore further
-Bag liner is a play by ear and I should throw it in the weather dependent
-Oh buddy great point but very hard mentally after how cold it was
-Emergency kit weight should...
Extra Sleeping Pad:
Last year my buddy and I went during rifle. The sleeping pad I brought got a hole in it and couldn't patch it. It was in the 20s and 6 inches of snow on the ground. I've never been so cold in my life and don't plan on it again.
Going out to Colorado for first time Archery Elk. We've previously tried rifle but with no luck. Would appreciate a review and any thoughts on my pack list.
