Clothing and Equipment to Bring With You

We recommend these items as a guideline for your hunt. Temperatures will vary greatly from night to day, depending on the altitude and season. It may freeze at night, be sunny, rain and snow in the same day (25 - 65 degrees). Be prepared for the wind, layered clothing is by far the best way to go.
