Good stuff.
I've seen trekking poles mentioned a couple times here. I used to take them but quit. I never used them except for packing meat. Now I just look for suitable wood and make my own. I use them to cross a fast stream, then set them aside to use when I come back later. Last moose I killed and packed out (all of it alone) and didn't use any poles. Making them in the field is another way to save weight on your flight in.
