Is a nice pack weight. Wish I could get mine that low.

Roger that,, Packing a wet sheep and camp back to the strip is staggering!

Quick note on the hunt. Outstanding hunt that finished with a 9 year old sheep on Thursday morning. My beautiful bear came on Tuesday evening. Incredible trip all around. Jake knows his area and was a great companion in the backcountry. Staying in AK to fish and sightsee. Tagged an 80lb halibut yesterday. Going to visit the Kenai today and fish salmon later in the week. Was warned to not go south tomorrow since holiday weekend traffic will be bad.

Full report next week when I get back. Typing on my phone is annoying.

The macadamias took heavy losses from my wife and I prior to the trip. Chocolate covered coffee beans were substituted. While Jake doesn't like coffee, he seemed fond of the beans. Yes, I think they were worth it. The nuts would have been better than the beans. Not heavy and a little treat to after a long hike. Something a little fun to push you forward.

I lived for those two ounces each evening.
