Contents of a lion huntin pack

[walkin w/ some blue]

What do yall keep your in packs. I been runnin for a few years and it seems i always forget somethin. Sometimes its extra gloves or my radio. What are your essentials. The one thing I never forget is road flares. These are the best fire starters i have found. They have a continueous flame for fifteen minutes. Also what do you wear to keep warm and what works best.

[Big Mike]

A flashlight and some kind of fire starter are a must for a hunting pack. Flashlight mainly for when you catch critters in holes caves, holes. I always cary lighters in my pack or saddle bags, never know when you not gonna make it home.

A me a buddy got caught in a hell of a rain/hail storm elk hunting in september. Rain about 3 in in an hour and the canyon we were in was running so fast we couldnt cross it so we were stuck for a spell. I got soaked to the bone and was freezn my a$$ off. My had buddy a 99 cent plastic walmart pancho he gave me. Put that on, it trapped my body heat and made a huge differance. I always carry one of them or a space blankit ever since.
