Gear I Can't Live Without.

[NRA4LIFE]

A small vacuum sealed pack of Clorox wipes and a small vial of hydrogen peroxide, both for cleanup.

Two things - First is the glassing pad. I use a half a thermarest z-rest. Folds up small and it is a luxury for long glassing sessions. Sencond - the cord/stake combo for helping guy out legs/quarters while breaking down an elk by myself.

Battery powered LED Xmas lights for winter camping. Make great tent lights, don't weigh much more than the batteries that power them. Click on/off without blinding anyone.

What non-essential gear can you not live without?

Well, if I can't live without it......then it's not non-essential.

Pampers baby wipes. My ass is cleaner in the backcountry than at home.

Chapstick

Specifically Bert’s bees. Once I forgot chapstick on a week long trip and I thought I was gonna die. I’d rather forget my sleeping bag lol

Thermacell.... I will not hunt without it if I know there will be a large number of mosquitos around.

Thermarest ultralight cot. Planning on modifying it with pultruded carbon rods instead of aluminum and replacing the top material with Xpac vx07 topper. I’m sure that will alter the weight to a little lighter. Frankly, the stock product materials suck.
