Guys, I am planning a backpack hunt in Arizona in November,
I've done a lot of long hiking on the AT but I cannot find my packing list!!!
I'm in the process of creating a new one and would appreciate anyone who has one they'd care to share.

You can e-mail it to me at [email protected]

Thanks in advance!!

Sincerely.

Google Brady Miller gear list and Jay Scott gear list. Both have AZ specific lists on their respective websites and on hunt backcountry.

I have several different lists according to what I'm doing like camper camping, camper hunting, llama packing, etc. I have each item listed with 2 check boxes after it. When I start planning, I go down the list and put a check in the 1st box if I want to take it this trip. I check the 2d box when I pack the item.
