There will be a hike in the morning up a steep cliff for about 2 hours I am told.at one point my friend says that we will need a stick to help climb.we will be coming down at the end of the day.my rifle is 8 1/2 lbs. and I have a soft pack.without food for the day my daypack is at 10 lbs.here is what I have so far.

3 pair glove liners and gloves(different weights)
1@extra pair socks
1@extra hat(watchcap)
GPS
binoculars
Thermal top
Wool Gore-Tex jacket
Space blanket
Matches/lighter
Surefire flashlight
Micro light
5 extra shells
Baklava
Lens cleaner
Large knife
small knife(leatherman)
diaper wipes(travel pack)

As you can see i am trying to lighten up my load.i am sure that i am carrying too much but feel that surely I am missing something important.

Any thoughts?
