I usually have audiobooks loaded onto my phone. I also carry a pocket survival guide in my pack. If I get bored I'll break out the survival guide and try to identify the vegetation around my camp or use it to identify constellations at night.

I really enjoyed Meat Eater by Steven Rinella and World War Z by Max Brooks. both are kinda short reads but worth it. someone else mentioned Patrick McManus never sniff a gift fish is fun read also.

Some of the posts on these sites would suggest that a large number of people have never read the regs, not necessarily pointing at you, but you might try reading those while fighting to get some sleep, its sure to do the trick.

I find the commissioners comments particularly useful, doubling as a sedative and mountain money all in one handy little magazine. ;)

In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

I'll give another nod to Steven Rinellas stuff. The Joe Pickett novels by CJ Box are really good too. Fictional stories about a Wyoming game warden. I read all 12 or 13 in less than a year.

There is no better outdoor read than Larry McMurtry. But they are heavy....loading on the kindle would be sweet. I enjoy reading the bible also, can't go wrong there.
what in the wild wild world of sports???

Tiny little Gideons bible stays in my pack. And I bring some small pcs of paper and a pencil stub- write notes about the hunt, and short notes to my wife which are really nothing but makes her happy. Also stare at the map.. and wonder if I should be somewhere else since I never get enough scouting in  :)

For the Bible guys out there and maybe the guys thats arnt.  Look into the books "A look at life from a Deer Stand" and "With Dad on a Deer Stand" by Steve Chapman. They are light and you will enjoy them in the field.

The regs would be light enough, but it would be too heavy to pack a lawyer to explain them to me :)

Always take my bible. Its small and lightweight. Phones and tablets will probably save you a little with the weight, but I'm old school, I like flipping the pages.

CJ Box is a great author.  Those are my favorite.   :tup:
