You would be correct!

good base layers are a must for me. better boots keep me out there longer. a plus i'm enjoying is a small section of tyvek house wrap. works for shelter and is a great place to set meat while you're trying to bag it solo.

Other than your weapon items I use every trip are;
1. Absolute best 10x42 binoculars you can afford
2. Lightweight gortex boots that offer support
3. At the time of year I hunt a good cow call can save the day.

When it comes to elk hunting, what are the top three items that you can’t you live without? Bonus points if there are pieces of gear that you think are particularly unique!

My gun or bow.
My quality Binoculars.
My quality footwear.

Exactly. With these 3 items elk are in a lot of trouble wherever I hunt them. At least I like to think so

I'm getting old and need a pee bottle inside the tent for the middle of the night.

For myself, my top 3 are;

#-1- My Calls, Reed & Bugle does my locating & killing!

#-2- Kenetrek Boots, best boots I've owned!

#-3- EXO 3200 Pack, I plan on killing & packing!

I hunt mostly dark timber & very rough country, no use for optics there.

Aside form the standard items we all need, wet wipes are a must for me along with a good butt pad for glassing/pillow for sleeping, and some insta coffee for the mornings.
