Lil-Rokslider
Hello, my friend has invited me on an OTC sheep hunt here in our home Alberta.
Since it will be my first ever backcountry hunt I am looking for Rokslide to provide any and call criticism and suggestions.
Walking in, rifle hunt, early Sept, 7 days.
Gear list:
Items with a ? or highlighted I am unsure if they are needed. He's providing the shelter, also has a nice Kowa spotter. We recently bought a freeze drier so I am hoping to make some meals up, if not I will just buy some. Some might laugh at "nail clippers and face lotion" but if I have small skin tears around my nails they drive me nuts until I can clip them off before they rip even more and I get pretty dry skin around my nose/eyes so a week of that would also drive me nuts so I am willing to pack a small bottle to keep my sanity.
As for puffy jackets and pants I own a few puffy jackets - Arc'teryx LEAF Fusion, Kifaru LLP, Firstlite Woodbury (probably too heavy), Firstlite Uncompahgre, OR Transcendent. As for puffy pants only got one pair and they are the matching LEAF fusions to the jacket.
I don't have a glassing pad but I think I may need to find a cheap one. I basically already own 90% of the things on the list and since this is my first trip I'm looking to avoid buying more than I need to. I will need to buy trekking poles, a dry bag, and food.
Thanks in advance
