    Backpacking Sleeping bag recommendations

    I’m a big fan of the quilt option too. Super lightweight and small. Hammock gear 20 degree quilt with a Nemo tensor insulated sleeping pad. Ran it on a late October NM backcountry elk hunt at 9000 feet. Nighttime temps somewhere between 15-20 degrees and 15-25 mph winds all night long. Slept in thin long Johns, kuiu lightweight merino wool top and a cheap Costco puffy with a beanie In a three season tent - no heater. Plenty warm. That’s the coldest I’ve ever taken that setup.

  5. Wanted to get the forums take on headlamps ability to blow out an area. I’ve always turned mine off or used very sparingly in red the last 1/2 mile or so to the mornings glassing spot but I’ve been taking my 73 years young father out with me and he just doesn’t have the stability to find his footing that far without light. What have y’all seen with all your combined years in the field? Ever worked into an area with a headlamp and seen deer close by at first light that were obviously there the whole time? Ive only killed a couple coues and they were late morning/evening kills thanks all.

    Headlamps and stealth

    Now that I think of it I was walking out after dark with my headlamp up north after watching an elk rut party (that was a a pretty cool experience) and as I was crossing an open meadow approaching the edge of the timber I caught two eyes shining back at me less than 50 yards out (headlamps pretty weak). At first I I thought it was coyotes because they were low to the ground (turns out it was due to the rising terrain). Then I saw I a couple more left and right of the first pair. Stomach flipped and I wish I had brought something to defend myself! Kept walking and at 40 yards I figured out the eyes were too far apart to be coyotes, I yelled and then I could see the bouncing of Muleys as they took off.

    Thanks Stanley. I guess that settles that. Appreciate all the help y’all.

    Thanks Stanley. I apologize for the poor etiquette. I must have missed it. I’ll go back and search using your handle.
