msgbarney Report post Posted February 16, 2009 I have kicked this around for many years and this year is the year. I would like to go on a pack in , hunting trip. I just bought the pack frame and now need to load it up. I will need to purchase a tent 3 or 4 season, sleeping bag, cooking stuff, water filter, MRE (that taste good) and all the other small goodies. I could walk in to all the stores for product reviews, but I trust my fellow hunter's instead, on product's they have used and what works well. I'm open for all input and do's and don'ts to buy. I was also wondering since AZ ,doesn't have many stream's that run all the time , will a water filter system work on water holes (YUCK ). I have read some hunting books by Cameron and other guys WOW; they like the good stuff and have a open check book. If you have a buddy in the National guard (7420 W Cactus Rd) see if he will hook you up with a couple cases of MRE's. Heck they will be free. If I did'nt live so far away, I could get you a couple. They are expensive as heck if you buy them, I have never tried the civilian version, but the Army's are pretty good for the most part. They are all packed with a minimum of 2500 carbs to keep you going. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
