I like to roll up mule tape really tight and pack it in a tin the size of a hocky puck, can get a lot of mule tape in that small tin
 

KFhunter, do you have a good source for the muletape?

Iceman, Just about every phone company truck yard has a pile of the stuff they will give away for free.  They usually only use it once so there is always some real nice pieces if you look it all over.  Only catch is you will usually have to get it untangled which can sometimes be more than the brain can handle.

Our local phone company sold me the NEW 1/2 mile spool I carry in the truck for about 25% less than I could find it online.

Sorry to butt in KF.
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."

My daypack (fanny pack) I carry fire starting supplies, knife, sharpener, game bags, licenses/tags, emergency blanket, snacks, water (Camelback), trail marking tape, nice headlamp, cord and Thermacell with refills.  I'm usually layered in clothing in mornings and may ditch heavy clothing somewhere that I figure I'll be walking back by to pick up on the way back to camp, or along the way to an evening hunting spot so I can pick it up before it starts to cool off (mark it on GPS).  If I plan a bigger excursion, I'll pack my Badlands 2800 with layers of clothing, water filter and a few extra snacks in addition to the fanny pack.  Toilet paper, GPS, rangefinder, SPOT messenger, compass, cheap headlamp are either attached or in my pockets.  Don't want to try digging though the fanny pack in the dark to find headlamp, much easier to reach in a pocket, but If I get an elk down, my fanny pack gets emptied.
