Clothes, food etc...I am a novice but am keen and have a very understanding girlfriend who has allowed a nice budget to have a bit of splash out. I have a rifle and some hunting equipment.
Thanks in advance

one set of dry thermals and socks kept in a dry bag with sleeping bag

1/2 can of gas and stove
Mug and spoon

1 waterproof Jacket

And your food - I live on OSM's for lunch and snacks . De hy meals with fresh venison for dinner and pre package your breakfasts into zip lock bags with cereal , milk powder and protein powder so all you have to do in the morning is throw in water, shake it up and youre away.

Thats all I would take for a week If i was walking. Only variables would be more or less food and a book if the weather is shit.

I reckon anything else would be surplus.
