    Downstream, I'll unpack this with words and images.

    Until then, those who correctly name 100% of the tools in it will win $10,000, paid in Pakistani coins. :confused:

    Those who only get 50% will win an all expenses paid trip
    to Maine next week for a 20-night camping adventure.
    (Temps here tonight will hit -20F, and -30F further north. Bundle up.)

    Those who only get 25% will win a Snickers bar and some PBR.

    I worked on this pack for the last five hours after a hike in the afternoon on a snowmobile trail
    during which I was close to losing feeling in my toes in Muckboot Arctic Sport boots.
    The high today was in the mid-single-digits.

    Oh, extra points to the first person to name the pack: maker and model. ;)

    Here's the story of the afternoon walk that motivated packing this beast up for the next walk.

    Allen, don't wish it. Make it happen.

    How I got here is history,
    and it wasn't pleasant.

    {{ It was hellish }}

    But I survived.
    It was worth the chit

    Ok, I'll play.

    The pack is an Eberlestock Halftrack, a pack that you researched extensively and counted down the days for the delivery (bonus points for remembering?) ;)

    So you've got a closed cell mat, looks like maybe an orange pack towel?

    A zebra cook tin, a SOL emergency bivy, a food container perhaps.

    we can see your axe nustled in there, and a a knife.

    water bottles/bladder and Woobie as hinted, am I close?

    Love me some Halftrack. Glad to see it's still your baby. I recently bought the Muck Arctic Sport boots and for them to claim comfort down to -40 is just absolutely ridiculous. Nice boots but not as warm as they should be for the money.

    Thanks @Theodore. My feet were freezing at 20 degrees with 15mph wind in my tree stand at the beginning of the month. I had on a compression sock under a woolie and my feet were cold as hell.

    Just get them from a reputable dealer. The knock offs are junk.
