Idaho - Archery Elk Gear List

September can't come soon enough, but with that said, it's crunch time to prepare. To promote some kind of organization of the madness, and to hopefully, ensure that I do not forget anything... I made a back country gear list. I'm sure I left off some item, somewhere, but at least now I have a starting point and can begin to ready these items to be packed. Highly suggest using a list when packing, especially for an out of State trip.
