I like the gear list videos, but I’d like to see you folks fit all that stuff in your pack too

[@GOHUNT]

Great feedback! We'll need to do one of those videos soon!

[@mattgore8999]

Was waiting on this. Always love this dudes load out

[@jaketillywilliams118]

NeviLLE!! Been waiting for this

[@sheerwillsurvival2064]

Quick tip Tylenol PM is Acetaminophen pain reliever and the PM will help you sleep BUT for sore stiff muscles Ibuprofen is a anti inflammatory which is better for sore and stiff muscles fun fact you can take both staggered

[@GOHUNT]

Thanks for the feedback! Always good to know what pills you're taking!

[@joshwhite6163]

Solid video dude thanks for the info!

[@GOHUNT]

Thanks for watching Josh!

[@AKAToba]

simple. love it. thanks for the reference!

[@GOHUNT]

Glad it was helpful, thanks for watching Caleb!

[@davidstratman9088]

All that gear in that little backpack? No way!

[@joshphares4671]

Haha..."gloves are dumb"...too funny. But personally I have to agree. Mittens all day! Of note, though, my fingers may be a bit on the wimpier side and get cold easy :) Also, might consider a canister stand/stabilizer. Super lightweight and packable, and offers a lot more stability while cooking on your stove.

[@dristonlouis]

Hey guys awesome video! Quick question, would the Caribou Ultralight Game Bags fit any elk quarters bone-in? Or would you recommend just bone out completely? Thanks!

[@GOHUNT]

Bone-in could be tricky, it may not fit. Just depends on how big the elk quarter is. With using the ultralight game bags from Caribou Gear I've always boned out the elk and it works great. - Chris Neville

[@tylerbarron365]

try using an arrow shaft for the back pole support or maybe a stick only have to bring one trekking pole!

[@tylerbarron365]

also would love to hear a further in depth review of the stone glacier tent!

[@nathanhabbyshaw964]

Curious why you chose first light over other brands

[@jseekell]

I picked up an Anker 10000 for like $20. It’s better than buying a new $40 pocket juice every year. Plus with 2 of them for the same price I think I could charge my phone, 8 complete times at the end of each day. They have some different models but I’ve never had an issue with any anker product. Might be work checking out. :)

[@GOHUNT]

Awesome Jake, thanks for the feedback! I'll definitely take a look at those. - Neville

[@Benjblt]

How did you end up liking the Salewa's?

[@ryanoconnor9210]

Just an FYI taking advil might make you feel less sore, but it actually inhibits your recovery so I wouldn’t suggest it to feel less sore

[@GOHUNT]

Hey Ryan! Thanks for the tip 👊

[@tylerpark4197]

If you don't use the trekking poles, I recommend some even lighter dedicated poles. Look at 6moon designs or other companies have poles to replace the trekking poles for tents like those. Aluminum and Carbon depending on budget, but they are still lighter than the trekking poles.

[@GOHUNT]

Thanks for the info Tyler! Great advice!

[@willvoll12]

How late (cold) will go with the SG SkyAir tent before you switch to something sturdier?

[@GOHUNT]

Usually for my later season rifle hunts I will stitch over to a seek outside tent with a stove. Mid-October through November is the time frame. - Chris Neville

[@zachmerkle882]

Can you guys do a review on the Sky Archer 6400

[@GOHUNT]

Hey Zach, yes for sure! We will definitely have to film a review of that pack soon.

[@madman432000]

better add some extra cold weather stuff due to snow....😏

[@GOHUNT]

Haha you can never predict the weather up in the high country. Crazy!

[@jonconklin6761]

What does your pack weigh fully packed?

[@GOHUNT]

For these longer trips, I try keeping it right around 60 lbs. - Chris Neville

[@jonconklin6761]

goHUNT I am currently at 73 with gun and 9 days of food

[@cosmicchuck420]

How did your hunt go?

[@aaronfranck123]

Might need some food dude, that's gonna be a heavy ass pack.

[@GOHUNT]

We have a specific backcountry food video coming soon! Also, you can check out what he brought last year for food here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a6jHeISelKdqpbc

[@markychaz]

What’s your draw length?

[@morganbeam6410]

What is the difference in hiking boots and hunting boots?

[@GOHUNT]

Hi Morgan. The biggest differences will be the ankle support and stiffness. Most hiking boots are shorter and lighter to just cover trail miles whereas most hunting boots are taller and stiffer to offer better support off trail. However, some hunters will still rock lightweight hikers or even trail runners on hunts. It's all about what you are looking for

[@kcbush8283]

What food? And how much food

[@GOHUNT]

We have a specific backcountry food video coming soon! Also, you can check out what he brought last year for food here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a6jHeISelKdqpbc
