What's in your pack?
« on: May 28, 2017, 08:05:16 PM »
Alright guys, it's about that time for me to start getting my pack filled up for the year. What are the things that you don't leave camp or your rig without in your pack? Other than the obvious, knives, rope, water, snacks, first aid, etc

My day pack (X2) is packed for the worse case scenario, 72 oz camel back, drag line.
On outside of pack, Leatherman Wave, fix blade Browning knife attached by zip ties, with a Blackhawk Serpa holster with my XD 40 on the belt, and GPS on shoulder strap.
Inside, first aid kit, emergency blanket, various survival gear (glow sticks, whistle, quick clot, small roll duct tape, Black Talon 5 mil nitrile gloves etc....) Shooting sticks in side packet, batteries, two or more lighters in ziplock baggies in different pockets, flash light w/red filter and headlamp.
Small roll of day glow pink tape. One of my Motorola radios (the other is in the truck).
Gloves, emergency food (breakfast  bars, trail mix, Fritos, they make great fire starter), lunch (jerky, beef sticks, sandwiches, cookies, etc.). Extra Dry-fit tee shirt, sox.
When elk hunting I add grunt calls and bone saw.
I leave my pack full, and refill anything I use every day. I store my hunting pack in our tornado shelter as a SHTF pack as well.
Total weight packed 21-25 lbs. including handgun, give or take depending on how much food I pack.  :chuckle:

Selkirk Mountain Gear 9'x6' Solo Tarp.  Weighs about 8 oz and packs up like a Mountain Dew can.   Absolutely never leave without it.  Shade / Shelter when glassing etc...  Plus works great for covering meat, emergency bivy, boning onto, etc...

You are welcome in my deer camp anytime. Det cord makes for quick firewood, LOL.
