Please consider the fact that I am 55 years old, blind in one eye with limited vision in the other and have pretty severe arthritis in my knees, hands and lower back before you decide to add to my pack load

Right now the pack weighs 68 lbs, I am trying to get it down to 65 lbs.Old Savage wrote:How much does that all weigh.
I like the list. How about a cable saw to replace the folding saw, adding some iodine just in case, not to mention a couple epi-pens and some allergy medication. I had a one time reaction to something (not sure what it was) that I was exposed to everyday. Everything was exactly the same as the day before and after. Same foods from open packages, same chemical. Same place, etc.bluesman423 wrote:Here is the list of my pack and attached carry contents:

Over the years I have left two cooking pots, a 12" X 12" x 1/2" piece of flatiron for cooking, a grill to fit across my fire pit and a shovel at the site ............... these items have never been disturbed, probably because this area is likely never visited by humans due to its inaccessibility.
Most of my food needs will be satisfied by trapping or fishing. However, I intend to take small hogs and whitetail to add to my menu if the temp is cool enough to keep the meat while I process it.
I carry a Kershaw FodingField knife in my pocket for cleaning larger game but use the Rat 7 for most camp chores.
Someone asked about tyoes of fish .......... I have caught several varieties of perch, crappie and black bass in the small lake near my campsite ........... I use live bait and almost always use limb lines
If you have questions please ask.
