Thanks for all the input!  This helps a lot. 

Especially thanks for the backpack offer.  Very nice of you.  Unfortunately I am 3 hours from Arlington.

The only thing I would add is one of the Outdoor edge swing blade knives. I have given each of our new hunters one because they do the job well year in and year out.

I love my Outdoor edge razor-pro swingblade,  but I do not recommend any exchangeable blade knives for kids.

 Quality warm clothing, made all the difference in the world for my kids.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

A Leatherman Wave, or other multi-tool?
Only 2 defining forces sacrificed themselves for you:
The American Soldier and Jesus Christ. One died for your freedom, the other for your soul.

My rock,
He trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle.
Psalm 144.1

I dunno how old this niece is, but I can attest that kids LOVE having this experience of lunch on the mountain.   

I can't recommend a jetboil though, because the adult would have to be on board of doing this if the niece is young.  If the adult is a pack of jerky, couple granola bars, and ding dongs type they won't take the time to use the jetboil, and the niece won't ever get that experience.   It'll sit and collect dust. 


If the niece is young I'd run it by her adult hunting partner and see if they'd use it...if they already have one and use it, then it's kinda redundant until the niece is on their own hunting.

I just had another idea, a gift certificate to mount their first turkey beard on a plaque.

If ya need something to put all this stuff in  :chuckle: this is a pack you could have for free to give her. Not a pricy hunting pack but it’s brand new and she might dig the camo. I’m in Arlington.

Great to see generous kind people like Bowhunter3 - good on you.
Other ideas: OnX app, binos, GPS devices, bino pack, combo tags for next year, boots ... all of which can be used for other activities too (except for the tags :))
