Here’s my gear list.
Tent: Eureka 1 man
Sleeping pad: Klymit 1 1/2” inflatable
Bag: I usually don’t bring a sleeping bag for early season hunts. Looking to purchase a good packable bag for later hunts.
Pack: Horn hunter mainbeam (junk) looking to upgrade to an exo or kifaru
Stove: Jet boil
Water: Platypus 3 liter bag paired with a sawyer filtration setup.
Food: Mountain house for evening meals and pre packed bags for daytime snacking (almonds, Fritos, peanut butter, clif bar, Vienna sausage, etc.)
Camo: Kuiu vias.
Socks: Smartwool
Boots: Solomon authentic gtx. Getting away from “hunting” boots and wearing a hiking boot has helped my feet considerably.
GPS: On X maps downloaded on my phone to use offline.
Communication: Delorme Inreach. I have this unit paired with my phone via Bluetooth. Pairing makes typing and reading messages a breeze. I also carry an external battery for charging phone and inreach. I need to get a solar charger for pack in hunts.
Optics: Vortex viper 10x42 binos and vortex viper spotting scope. Running a kuiu bino harness now but will probably switch to a fhf or marsupial. I love my kuiu clothes but the bino harness can be frustrating. Nikon arrow id rangefinder.
Kill Kit: Outdoor edge edc, spare blades, paracord, pen, electricians tape, cheap aa led flashlight, nitrile gloves, spare batteries
Lighting: Cheap bushnell headlamp from Walmart. Super bright and long battery life.
I also usually have a small multi tool and if it’s an archery hunt I’ll bring Allen wrenches that fit anything on my bow.
