Elk Tracking/Kill Kits... what's in your wallet?

[WapitiTalk1]

Yep, they are a bit different in my eyes, serve different purposes, and each have their special place in the grand scheme of things. OK, season is almost upon us, let's talk about elk hunt tracking and kill kits. I have a small, lightweight bag that contains my tracking kit (flagging ribbon, spray bottle of peroxide, my tags for state hunted, and a handful of reflective tacks). This little packet stays in the lid of my Exo 3500 pack for quick retrieval. The kill kit, is down in the bottom of my pack, right on top of the first aid packet in another zippered bag. The tracking kit comes out first but once the bull has been located ten toes up, err, four hooves up, out comes the kill kit.. My kill kit contains a fixed blade knife, a replaceable blade knife, lightweight synthetic game bag set, a container of chili powder, tiny diamond sharpening rod, piece of lightweight plastic, bone saw for cutting off skull cap, two black plastic sacks (pack liners for the initial two packers), and four lengths of para-cord in case meat needs to be hung. Do you cats pack/carry similar configurations or something different?

Edit:  I carry two pairs of the latex gloves in my kill kit also...

I'll add something to the kill kit which is a filet glove. They work great for keeping a good grip on the hid while skinning and have saved me on numerous cuts.

I dont flag anymore with gps just need a little for antlers.   U ever use that peroxide?  I carry a havalon, fixed blade, wyoming saw, kuiu waterproof bags, garbage sack, paracord, latex gloves.

toilet paper can kind of work like peroxide and flagging

Not as easily seen when hanging from branches JH, and, it doesn't foam.  I too have used TP for tracking but what the heck does a guy do when you've used your TP for tracking and nature calls  .

chili powder?

chili powder?

Used to keep flying insects off your exposed and bagged meat... works much better than pepper.

yeah, multi-function items rarely serve each function as well as individual specific items.
