I have some nice lightweight warm clothes and boots. AAA LED flashlight that throws a beam and weighs damn near nothing. GPS give me confidence, and good for tracking.

It's been discussed for years but no one has invented it yet...a technique for removing 5 years from my old carcass. Not exactly new, but you've heard of cheerleaders right?

After last years successful elk hunt, the Kimber Montana 270 Win and the Barnes 140 gr TSX. I now have a pile of rifles I need to sell. I would be willing to offer up to $100 for your ratty old wood and blue 7x57

I have a thermacell and haven't had the luck with it that others have. Maybe Alaska mosquitoes have an immunity to modern technology because they used my thermacell to fornicate on.
Our last couple of trips to Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida my wife and I were surprised by the lack of mosquitoes. We couldn't believe how mosquito free the area was for being swampland. Maybe we're just used to Alaska sized mosquito invasions.

Clothing and footwear. Warmer, drier, lighter.
Google Earth. Topos are nice but don't differentiate between hardwoods, conifers, etc...

Surprised I haven't seen "Infra Red" yet.
