Shelter:  20 year old North face 2p
Sleeping Bag:  Mountain Hardware 0 degree or 30 degree
Pad:  Big Agnes Q Core   
Pillow:  Sea to summit
I accept the weight penalty of the 2p tent because I like to keep my pack and bow secure inside the tent.

Shelters depend on weather and if I'm solo.  Tarp, badger hole, 4 man tipi or 8 man tipi.  If snakes, scorpions, or big scary spiders are an issue a eureka zeuss II.

Bag is most likely an EE enigma 0° quilt or a kifaru slik bag for hunts that may get real western.

Tyvek ground cloth always

Pad is currently a big Agnes q core SL but I'm sure by season that will change.

When needed an 18" kifaru Smith stove

An elk. Everything else is still on the mountain.
