My mother put a contractor bag of dirty laundry in the back of the truck when we went in to Tok flying in with Charlie Warbelow and Leif Wilson. We found out that we took the dirty laundry instead of the dehydrated MH. I had enough back up MH that my father who was diabetic and had to have regular food was taken care off. I ate blueberries and powdered milk for seven days until we killed our rams. I freaking check the food before we go out.
Sincerely,
Thomas

I made it all the way (5 hours) to go grouse hunting in late September in Northern Colorado and forgot my sleeping bag. I had long, cold night, half by the fire and the other half wrapped up in a blanket with boot warmers. Short trip. Headed home the next evening.

Instead of things I forgot,
How about things I'd like to take with me?
I'd love to go out in the field and a rough weather environment for a couple of days and nights with Paddler and R. Gin-T-her....
Can you imagine how entertaining that would be???
with their K Mart Sleeping Bag, cheapo tent, poor choice of footwear and outerwear...
that after having to send out Search & Rescue to find their lost asses... if a bear or coyote wasn't caught snacking on their carcasses...

Gee Stealhead, aren't "bullets" included in your ammunition? I take cartridges, most times

I sooner try to drain the ocean with a teaspoon than quarter an elk with a Swiss Army Knife. Just the thought of it raises blisters on my thumbs. Truly the embodiment of the saying "where there's a will there's a way". I would be de-boneing.

I usually don't need much. Rifle, ammo, nocs and knife.....and TP. I didn't have TP when necessary one time and vowed to not rip up another t-shirt in a sleet storm. A sharp knife has easily had me going commando a few times.

I've forgot lots of hunting stuff, but fishing one time I left my full tackle box on the river bank, when driving 15 miles to my next stop. Of course it was gone when I got back, several $hundred's worth. I bought $10.00 worth of jig heads and twister tails and went fishing at dark. Caught my limit of very nice walleyes in an hour. The rest of the story, A cool old guy found my tackle box and I got it back a month or so later.

Not much sleeping... But I did get a couple of grouse before I headed home.

I took apart my last 2 moose with a Havalon piranta, what are those? 2.5 inch blades maybe.....when you know how, you learn a big knife is generally more of a PITA than a small one... Used to clean about 300 deer a year on a ranch we guided on, mostly with a 2 inch blade...

I used a Rem. 760 single shot one day.  No big deal, it still held more rounds than I needed.
