Sawyer filters are all back washable & can last the rest of your life if you don't let them freeze. They have several types including ones that mount on or in bottles; unfortunately not Nalgene so you have to get bottles for them. If I'm in lower area & have to deal with viruses etc... I'll also take a Steripen & treat with U V light. I always carry chlorine dioxide tablets as a backup. I work in a water treatment plant & have tested several systems & these are my choices to treat water for myself & the scouts that are often with me.
I love the photon light! I got one as a last ditch backup but ended up using it as my primary for many a backpacking trip...in the summer. In ideal conditions, seasoned hikers blessed with good eyes dont need a lot of light to navigate in the dark. In fact, we know that obnoxious heavy lights are just stupid. Move right, look right, be right and its AMAZING what humans can see and move around in the dark.
18 days until game day. Much appreciate your work in outdoor education and conservation, solidarity from Coeur d’Alene. Would still love to see a pacific yew stave selection, harvest, and curing video.
Man I envy you. That is God’s country up there. I’ve never been to Idaho but have spent a good bit time in Colorado. My wife and I would love to get out there one day. Seems like Idaho has the beauty of Colorado but the politics of Texas.
Agree with you on the water bladders, they can be a pain. To keep them clean use a cap full of bleach and fill with warm water. Slosh it around, let it sit a while, can use a bottle brush. Run it out through the hose. That'll clean and disinfect. Then hang upside down and let it get totally dry until next use. Source bladders are the best because they have the widest opening across the entire top, but are heavy. Platypus are my second, with a large screw opening, but harder to access with a brush. Nalgene are tough, but through-hikers have almost universally adopted Vitamin Water bottles. They're light, tough enough, have sports caps so you can drink one handed, fit into external mesh pockets easily, and you can easily track how much fluid you're taking in throughout a day to make sure you're staying hydrated.
I'll add for the water filtration.. $40 Katadyn BeFree is a 1L bladder with the filter built in. You collect water with the bladder, then drink straight from it. You can also squeeze it to fill the above referenced Vitamin Water bottles. In just a few minutes, you can filter 3L of water and have 1L of dirty in the BeFree. For much less weight than any other system. I used to carry a CNOC bag and Sawyer Mini or Squeeze, and now they sit in a box, obsolete. Dump the gravity fed and pump filters, you'll thank me.
Cheap bino glass works well until you out hunt its quality. For two years in a row spring bear hunting for the first time in Idaho, I spotted the bears first every time with my cheap Vortex diamondback 10x42. My buddy had nice Nikon HDs. Our distance was about a mile from the bear maybe more. One big difference is glassing a hill 3+ miles away is a huge difference between my glass and my buddies. Also staring towards sundown light was easily doable with nikon hd but not doable with my cheap glass. If you hunt and sit and glass a lot for an hour or more, expensive glass is the way to go. I felt like I spent enough hours behind cheap glass with success to talk myself into buying Swarovski NL Pures this season.
Nice dump, I recommend you also add bright colored fluorescent tape. Great for marking areas to back track if you were to track game off the trail and into deep brush. It’s also a good way to be found.
I divided 10c's into 8 packs. They range from small size (25 litre) to tall British military with removable side bags (90 litre +) Two are black, looks like a travel suitcase with a harness, for civilian places, the others are olive green, camo for summer, and brown realtree camo for fall and fall/winter. The Realtree is geared for cold weather hunting (Agawa saw with bone blade, skinning knife) and for ease of carry, equipped for one day. The medium olive green is streamline equipped for fast travel from A to B, the large British military is 3 day complete to minus 15 Celsius; this stays in my truck. Two are mountain / hiking backpacks, fitted for 3 day use and much lighter to carry than the British. Each pack considers certain conditions and needs. For ultra cold, ( minus 40) I have 2 trapper nelson packs but have yet to finalize their contents. These will contain an axe, the others have machetes.
Great video. I use the Garmin mini 2, found it hooked up much better/quicker to my phone than the original Mini and some of the other older inReach devices. And battery life is better. Leuko tape makes me itchy, KT Tape does the same but doesn’t contain latex. I also carry raingear and more layers, plus a bunch of other crap, but I’m in northwestern Canada near Alaska. CalTopo is a great mapping app which seems to be one of the better ones for Canadians, along with iHunter for figuring out hunting regs. BeFree makes a very light and compact (and cheap) water filter. For us Canadians, don’t let your filters freeze, it’ll wreck their filtering capabilities but you won’t know until you get sick. I’m not a knife guy, I like the Outdoor Edge folder with the replaceable blades and a Leatherman. I carry a couple replacement blades for the Outdoor Edge, which is enough to dress out and debone a sheep or caribou. I really enjoy your videos and have learned a ton from them.
Good stuff! One thing that i just can't go without in my pocket is a "tactical" flashlight. I've had a stand off with a good size blackbear and drove it iff with the strobe, and work construction everyday snd having that light in my pocket at all times ids just indespensible.
an sak + pliers weighs less and costs less than a leatherman. A real pair of pliers is so much nicer to use than a leatherman. I keep pliers in a side pocket while fishing in some carhartt work pants, otherwise I keep it in a haversack or even just in the truck since it isn't a high use item for me
Your multil tool vs mine. I absolutely agree. I take mine everywhere. Mine happens to be a Gerber multi tool. It flicks out, and can be used with 1 hand, if I'm on a ladder, for instance. Love it. I would defend the ounces for the multitool, for sure. I'd defend the ounces for 2. Haha.
@@colonelangus3826 yeah. I always have my Gerber. Which was my army issue. I do like the one new model that's not Gerber, just because it does the same thing, but I do have to open my Gerber to get to the tools. I do like the ability to one hand the knife or saw out. Etc. That's beneficial. So I'll definitely look at the one or two tools, at the same quality, that offer that closed one hand access to the tools. But I also have a belt knife everywhere now. Often it's my 9.5 inch Gerber kukri ish machete on my hip. Love it. Grocery shopping. Picking up the mail. Visiting the police station for some paperwork for the school. Love it.
Great video Clay. Trim load out for the every trip carry and that new bino harness does look nice. I haven't been a fan of the vortex harness. Seems unnecessarily bulky. That 'paracord block and tackle" you mentioned deserves its own video. An updated one from the Backcountry College days. Nate
@@TheEvilWalrusLordno. In Europe, leukoplast/leukotape is used to fasten the cotton to your skin after a blood test. That tightly weaved, non stretch, usually brown sticky tape that will take the hair off your arm before it comes down... 😅
I don't feel so bad now. For carrying 2 different types of compasses. No batteries needed along with quadrant maps. I may be "Old-school," I've never had a problem with out a solution ever,ever with. A survival situation sounds like an adventure coming , I don't mind an adventure. I'm not trolling I'm just seriously board because I plan for every single sinarieo ever. Great content keep up the great work.
No, onx doesn’t have anything to do with the Inreach. If you get onx, buy the yearly subscription and you can download maps onto your phone and when you’re out of cell service you can still see your exact location in the areas you have downloaded. The Inreach is just for sending and receiving texts while out of cell service. I highly recommend having both if you spend a lot of time in areas without cell service.
I've wondered about this... And maybe you have already answered it, idk. But if you could have taken an 11th item on alone what would it have been? And/or, if you were to go again, would you have taken anything different? Or something you wish you could have taken that wasn't allowed?
In addition to the cell phone, you can carry a small solar charger, same size of your phone, will charge a phone up in a few hours.(more electronics/ lol) to carry along, Great Video..
I’ve yet to find or see someone with a solar charging battery pack that isn’t junk. I’ve hunted with guys who have top of the line solar chargers and they have left them out in direct sunlight all day for 8+ hours and it barely charged it at all. I think the way to go for battery packs is Anker
Excellent video, almost exactly the items i carry myself. On question: what is the app you've mentioned for the cellphone, i couldn't get it's name (sorry, english is not my day to day languaje)
Clay, just wondering why you don’t carry a sidearm or even bear spray? I’m guessing you probably do, but I don’t recall seeing you carry. If you do, I’m curious what and how you carry
Just an interesting factoid. Leatherman does not repair tools, that is actually a brand new tool. In my opinion they have the best no questions asked warranty around. I have been getting my leatherman tool replaced since 2003. Buy once and they stand behind their product. (I do not work for them). Outstanding company!!!
You can specify if you want the same tool back or a replacement. Since mine has sentimental value I asked to have it repaired. My name and phone number is inscribed on the tool and I got the same one back.
I rarely camp where there’s no water. If I do it’s only for a night and I carry what I need for that evening and coffee the next morning. Two liters maybe.
This is something you can figure out during training hikes and overnight camps. Everybody has different water and electrolyte requirements, which of course is also influenced by the temperature, humidity, distance & time of travel, weight of your kit, difficulty of terrain, altitude, and your fitness level. Typically plan to consume 2-4 liters for a 10-15 mile hike. In mountainous or wooded backwoods terrain, it's unlikely you're going any further out than this in a day, especially if you are actually stalking game, where you might take two hours or more to close in over 300 yards. Ultimately, I wouldn't recommend going into remote locations without known water sources for more than 48 hours, or more than about 8 miles from civilization. Two days without water puts you in serious danger. Remember too there are water sources beyond... water. Snow can be melted, plants have water in them and sometimes on them, and both rain and morning dew can be collected by a variety of methods.
That's weird because I just was searching items you can't have in a carry-on and disposable lighters are allowed now ( I was checking United but I ended up on the TSA site)
Incorrect. Lighters are allowed in checked bags only if they are either 1) without fuel or 2) no more than two, in a DOT Approved case. The catch? DOT doesn't approve cases, so it is entirely up to interpretation at the airport. Generally, sealed, unlocked, non-metallic cases like a Pelican are what they will allow. Shocker, they don't want a pipe bomb in the luggage hold. All that said, it's pointless to bring a disposable lighter on a flight. Just buy one for $2 at the first gas station at your destination.
@@silvermediastudio actually I am correct, you can have a bic or even a zippo in your carry on. You're right about the checked bags, but carry on allows them. My daughter just flew with a zippo i bought her and had no issues.
@@lukecrue1 I stand corrected. Must be a change since August; which was the last time I had to review the regs. Good to know! www.tsa.gov/travel/security-screening/whatcanibring/items/disposable-and-zippo-lighters
Well, I don’t see that tape that you’re talking about where it’ll be there in a month later if you put it on the hotspot I’m not really seeing that on your gear list with links so if you could please do something with that thank you very much I don’t know how to spell the name of what it is
Clay, we saw the coming home from alone video, have you done anything inside the home, or tanned anymore hides? Would love to see this, I've watched a couple of your video's, love the love of your family and your self sustaining homesteading life. Am subscribing now. Thanks for showing us so much of what you said you were gonna do with your kids and family. Bless! And also a big thank you for not wasting of scrap of these amazing hunts!
California has lots of hogs but it’s expensive to hunt there. Texas is more affordable for private land hunts. Most of the costal southeast states have hogs on public lands. Often the fish and game agencies will have specific WMAs listed where hogs are prevalent.
A bic lighter is always my first choice for fire, but never the only choice. If a ferro rod is your backup your going to be cold if you don't practice before you need it. I also always have a tourniquet in my pack.
Just after he said "especially" tbh thought you was trolling lol, but after replaying this on different speeds about ten or so times yes. Sounded like "wait". Although there could be many factors that course this, after a breath some mics echo the frequency, could be overlay if he's been using a memory stick, wind, movement can produce slight sound waves and that goes back to sound frequency. I'm very interested in sound, especially the different effects of different frequencies, some we can't hear but a frequency monitor will pick it up. But yes i certainly heard something and again it sounded like "wait" also because his mic was set to high midrange and treble it also could of been the remnants of the breath just after he said "especially". But interesting, I'm so skeptical about all this even though i do watch a guy who does spirit box reading, and even he's explained that 90% of it is just frequency traffic.
Another great video! I can’t seem to find the glass pack your displaying, either on Amazon or even Vortex’s own page. Is it a prototype still? I’m not that happy with the original one, either, and looking for an upgrade. Thanks again for awesome content!!
Thanks for not including the porn you take along on those longer trips. 😂 I’ve been struggling with water filters. I just started using one of those gravity filters, but I find after several litres of water, they start to block and I need to back flush. Do you or anyone else have any tips on prefilter I g water? My source is almost always north central Quebec small lakes. Lots of sediment.
I enjoy these straight to the point videos. No sponsor ships, no unnecessary over explaining , and just strictly someone wanting to educate other people. Thank you ! Going on my first elk hunt in late October !
Hearing what experienced backcountry hunters carry is interesting, but hearing what they dont carry is even more interesting. Thanks for sharing!
Trekking poles are the difference between 2wd and 4wd.
You can also keep a survival encyclopedia on the phone.
Its pretty cool to be able to look up obscure plants for herbal remedy, or poison, etc.

The Grayl water filter is great for day use. If you’re trying to filter water for everyone it isn’t ideal but when on the move it’s cool
Katadyn BeFree is lighter and packs easier. And it'll work as a squeeze filter, so you can fill other bottles quickly.

You are allowed to bring a lighter in your carryon on an airplane. Done it a lot of times never had one taken
On water, if you are packing out somewhere without local water to filter, how much do you pack out per day? Anything in particular you use?
I rarely camp where there’s no water. If I do it’s only for a night and I carry what I need for that evening and coffee the next morning. Two liters maybe.

Hey clay, what kind of Re-Lyte flavor do you like most? I'm going to get some for my elk hunt next week.
I like the pineapple
Thank you so much
No problem
Do you kill an elk and carry out just a quarter?
I really enjoyed seeing your pack load out! The hows and whys of what you carry is very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Clay hayes can a (Sawed-off) Shotgun (Boomstick)/Elephant gun conversion be used for hunting?
What?
Ya getting old sucks but wait till you're a Great Grampa...makes me wonder if I should be elk hunting alone this year 😢😢😢
Keep hunting!

Hey clay! I need some help, I’m out in Utah and we don’t have many hardwoods. Any good woods out here for a bow?
Serviceberry will make a good bow
@@clayhayeshunter really appreciate you taking the time to answer. Keep up the good work. You’re an inspiration!
What do you typically take for wind indicator?
I like milkweed silks. Can’t beat’em.
I have a small leatherman I keep on my keychain
Awesome video
Clay, we saw the coming home from alone video, have you done anything inside the home, or tanned anymore hides? Would love to see this, I've watched a couple of your video's, love the love of your family and your self sustaining homesteading life. Am subscribing now. Thanks for showing us so much of what you said you were gonna do with your kids and family. Bless! And also a big thank you for not wasting of scrap of these amazing hunts!
Hey, we’ve done a ton around the place. And I’m actually bark tanning an elk hide right now !
@@clayhayeshunter you should sell them! Online of course, lol... I'm in!
Sweet video
Dude, you gotta wash the bladders out every once in a while
I'm near ya here in Idaho. I've been interested in a hog hunt someday. Any suggestions?
California has lots of hogs but it’s expensive to hunt there. Texas is more affordable for private land hunts. Most of the costal southeast states have hogs on public lands. Often the fish and game agencies will have specific WMAs listed where hogs are prevalent.
you can take lighters on airplanes, just not torch lighters.
great vid
A bic lighter is always my first choice for fire, but never the only choice. If a ferro rod is your backup your going to be cold if you don't practice before you need it. I also always have a tourniquet in my pack.
Great video! Very helpful as I’m working on my load out.
Glad it was helpful!

Anyone else here the ghost whisper at 26:43 26:44 26:45
Just after he said "especially" tbh thought you was trolling lol, but after replaying this on different speeds about ten or so times yes. Sounded like "wait". Although there could be many factors that course this, after a breath some mics echo the frequency, could be overlay if he's been using a memory stick, wind, movement can produce slight sound waves and that goes back to sound frequency. I'm very interested in sound, especially the different effects of different frequencies, some we can't hear but a frequency monitor will pick it up. But yes i certainly heard something and again it sounded like "wait" also because his mic was set to high midrange and treble it also could of been the remnants of the breath just after he said "especially". But interesting, I'm so skeptical about all this even though i do watch a guy who does spirit box reading, and even he's explained that 90% of it is just frequency traffic.
Another great video! I can’t seem to find the glass pack your displaying, either on Amazon or even Vortex’s own page. Is it a prototype still? I’m not that happy with the original one, either, and looking for an upgrade. Thanks again for awesome content!!

@@clayhayeshunter Does it have Molle on the bottom? Couldn't tell while you were showing it?
I am surprised that you don't carry a pocket knife daily.
why would you go over txt limit? should only be two txt... "I'm safe" or "I need help" right?
Because I have a wife😉
Whater
Thanks for not including the porn you take along on those longer trips. 😂
I’ve been struggling with water filters. I just started using one of those gravity filters, but I find after several litres of water, they start to block and I need to back flush. Do you or anyone else have any tips on prefilter I g water? My source is almost always north central Quebec small lakes. Lots of sediment.
Wheres the panini press? ugh... yer sadwiches are awful! plus...no open bar. strike 3... Heh
No compass?
Thought he was gonna take a crap in his backpack. Downvoted for clickbait.
You can carry a lighter on an airplane now!
Really? Interesting
Meat bags stop bids lol. That's good advice. Not
Good ones do😉
Highly suspicious character
And too much lip smacking
