Anyone have a list of stuff they take on a 2-3 day bivey hunt?
Usually... this stuff. It may sound like a lot but It all gets into a pretty smaller pack quite easily and much of this stuff is independant of any eather forecast ... in the high country we can get snow in summer etc or 110deg ...

Al this gets carried easily in My Bison Lemhi ... for a two day I use my smaller Bison Packs.
Here's my basic pack list for up to a week. If the weather was moderate and I was going for a max of 3 days, I wouldn't have a change of clothes and I might just cold camp. Pack List (http://jdspics.webs.com/2011coloradoelkhunt.htm)
Needle
Birthday candles for easy fire starting
razor blade
tampon for deep wounds or cuts
Foil
Just some things I carry in addition to some of the above. Both great lists above, by the way
