I have spent 2-3 nights with short hikes living off my back to practice but Friday I am going to do it for "real". Using Megatarp with a bugaboo Bivy II . Actually planning on staying 10 days. I know that is a really long time, but I get one shot at this due to my job so want to make it count. Hoping to just use 3 of those.
I just want to make sure I am not forgetting anything This site has been a great resource for information and getting to go out with guys on here that know what they are doing has helped me learn as well. So I guess I am asking you to do a hybrid gear check and sanity check with me. I have been doing some 4 mile hikes in mountains with 65-70 lbs but at around 7500-8000. We are going to be at 9,800-10,300 So I will be slow but I think I can do it. pack weight sans bow is 56 lbs
Any insights or critiques you can give are appreciated.
