Back country pack weight?

[nclonghunter]

Not interested in what you carry, but what does your back pack or back country hunting pack weigh for several days of elk hunting?

Just weighed mine for 6 days in the field. It weighed 70lbs & that's without my water bladder filled.

I am right at 56 lbs for 12 days. That is my pack to get me to base camp about 3.5 miles in

If you don't count the 12-18 cans of beer, I average about 70 lbs give or take a pound or two. That's for 8-10 days in the wilderness. Good luck this fall!!!

50 -60 pounds

Always wishing for 40 but usually 50-60.

52lbs with all the food and gear I need for 7-days. That doesn't include a full water bladder though.

Last year I was at 60 lbs.  Purty heavy for a scrawny dude like me!

38 lbs without water for a 6 day/5 night hunt.  Over the past few years I have invested a crap load of money to shave weight off of my backcountry multi day pack/gear.

10 days winter hunting including water and weapon is 52lbs.
