I think I know the feeling sometimes. While stalking as I was bowhunting I laid my backpack down and took a break. After I got done I continued stalking and then after about 45 minutes or an hour I reliazed I didn;t have my backpack. I went back through the revine in tring to find it. 2 or 3 hours in tring to find my pack I knew I was starting to get into a situation where I'm burning calories in tring to find it and it was my survival kit with my gps and cell phone (turned off). At this point I was getting really pissed as I knew my hunt was blown and my main prioity was to find my pack. My legs were getting rubbery and I was getting fatiqued in tring to locate it, but it was the most important thing that I could focus on. How stupid could I be I thought while looking for it as I'm cursing myself. I finally found it and relized how a simple mistake could of been a real problem as I carry enough gear to spend the night if need be as well as first aide. It just pissed me off so much because it is just so unbecoming of me and I'm usually more sharper than that and it just about turn into a dangerious situation.
