Example:

  tarp
  chain saw
  gun
  extra ammo
  lantern

Ellensburg cracked me up. That would be the Slicker approach to hunting. Dont forget the 2 bags of groceries, full tank of gas, case of beer, smoking jacket, and slippers during your road hunt!!

Most of the obvious was stated, however, give some consideration to"
Compass
Area map(green trails)
Thermometer to hang in a tree(Always cool to see what the temp is outside)
Nails, rope, and hammer to hang all those tarps.

Your right. I left some stuff out. 30 case of Keystone light in my new cooler that goes right behind the beer window. That makes the bumpy roads more tolerable.... Its rough out there.
