Those Kifaru tipis with the wood stoves look pretty cool. I am really liking the look of some of their stuff.

Anyone ever go solo? tips for solo hunting?
Get a SPOT, be extra careful with your footing and that sort of thing, make sure you have the rigging with you stay dry and warm at all times, be able to get a fire going in crap weather no problem, pack water/stay hydrated, don't camp under big dead timber, be careful using your knife, carry a flashlight/headlamp and extra batteries, pack a map and learn how to use a compass and gps/learn to navigate, tell someone where you are heading, if you think things are getting a little haywire remain calm, learn to debone and cape stuff, have fun, etc etc. For backpacking the Kifaru tent and stove would be a bit heavy for a solo trip. Horse, boat, quad or plane it would be great but for back packing you need a good light tent.
