Show us Your Pack List

[AaronJohnson]

Since it\'s that time of year, I\'m usually looking at honing my pack list by searches of past threads on the web. Last year, I did a 5 day spike camp and I was very comfortable during the whole trip. My pack rode well on trip in and I had enough of everything and did not end up with much more than I needed. Here is my general list. Typically it get\'s honed based on the location I hunt.

Since I\'m organizing my pack I thought I would bring this thread back up

 

[Billy Goat]

I dont recall seeing this thread before, but I now want to hunt with Roman. that fellow is organized!

I keep everything related to elk in a single spreadsheet. in there, I have a tab for the travel plan, the food plan, STT (stuff to take, categorized), a log of all our hunts past and present, historical costs (should probably be a hidden tab....), my workout record for the year, etc.

when I die, my wife is supposed to print a copy of it, and put it under my head for a pillow in my casket. =P
