Thread: What to take?

As I'm learning now it really does depend on where you're going terrain wise, every time I go out I take less and less gear.
They to bring dry foods that you can add water to. Nathan F got me on to using milk powder and oats and stuff like that.
One other thing you might want to think about is sand flies, I get a reaction to them if I'm bitten enough so now I always make sure I have something to keep them off me.
I agree with what rusty is saying, just take what you need and no more. if you shoot something and you already have a full pack with all you can carry, how will you get the meat out.
If you have got a month before you go, load up your pack and walk some hills after work. you won't regret it when your in the bush.
