Many of you asked, we listened. 

In this episode, as the first installment of the School of September Gear Series, I open up my daypack and walk you through the contents. I'm very much a minimalist when it comes to what I carry on the mountain, but there may be a few surprises in my pack that will be of interest to you. 

We are looking for more gear ideas to cover, specific to September archery elk. If you have one, send your idea to jim@thewesternhuntsman.com

Enjoy!
