Please notify me on any special dietary needs you may have. This list is my suggested list. You know what you like and need on a hunt. Expect a wide range of weather and temperatures. Thus layering and some extra clothes is a good idea. Also being in good physical shape will give you the highest chance for success and enjoyment.
If you have and questions on what to bring, please give me a call.
Happy Hunting
