Glassing Knob necessities vs niceties

[canthitbombz]

The things I have for every glassing session whether I am scouting or hunting are:
-Optics
-Tripod
-Bino adapter
-Glassing pad
-layers (vary depending on season) but I usually try to have more than I think I should need. Plan to have enough to stay warm with very little physical activity and most glassing knobs are prone to high winds. I froze my but off this year on August 1st. It was 100 degrees when I left my house. That night on the glassing knob at 12,500' it was 37degrees and the wind was stout.
- Digi scoping adapter. I use the magview so this stays on my spotter and phone case all the time.
- Snacks
-Water. (Sometimes I'll bring a stove to make coffee)
-Dip. I gave up Copenhagen, but I use the nicotine pouches now. Rogue wintergreen is the best & I'll die on that hill. Dip is Essential for glassing sessions.
-I always keep a few lens cleaning wipes in my bino harness
- Gloves
-Beanie
-All day glassing sessions a sun shirt with a hood and chapstick are life savers.
- I don't pack a tarp. But there are times where I wish I had one.

this is a great list!!! Thank you
