For me every fall bear hunting pack has Ben's Wipes bug dope as a major item!
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."

I took a swim in permethrin a couple nights ago.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Lessons learned for packing and weight savings. Had way to much food. To much snack stuff. Probably could of saved a solid pound there. The floor less shelter is not for me, but I have a tarptent on the way and will actually be saving 4ozs and will be able to sit up.

Nothing beats a good pillow, the sea to summit areos ul is awesome,e and worth the 2oz.

A xtherm is my next upgrade, zlite pad isn't very comfortable.

Can cut weight on a shorter trip by taking a half full fuel bottle  since you are only using it two or three times
