Daypack weight

[mad_angler]

Your morning hunt ends at 10 am? I’m out all day as well but I’m hunting the whole time. There are some slow times but ... .

The hunt doesn't end at 10. I just stop glassing as hard. Then, i enjoy a nice cup of coffee and get ready for the rest of the day.

After the coffee, I pack everything back up and then start the midday hunting.

Holy cow. I’m around 15# for my day pack.

The 38 lbs includes my water, rifle, bino harness. My pack alone is close to 20

Nothing better than mountain coffee.

You just need to go drop $100+ on a Snow Peak double wall titanium thermos like the rest of us and you can ditch the jetboil for day hunts.
Annoyingly expensive, but one of my favorite and most used pieces of gear.

Over the years its gotten less and less.
If not used its coming out for day hunts going back to a main camp. 20lbs is my max weight. And yes I check it.

First aid kit
Kill kit
Hydration /food / snack kit
Hunt kit

Geographical region, archery vs rifle and weather drives whats in those.

Lastly, IMO its money well spent on things that may seem expensive, but very light.

At 56 hunting Wyoming , Colorado and Alaska I still wanna cover ground like I was in my 30s. Im not as fast, but still cover the ground.

Hope that helps.
