I try to go with at least one other person, but to be honest it is sometimes difficult to find people that enjoy this type of hunting.
I have found that to be a huge problem. Just about everyone likes to think about backpack hunting in the spring and early summer. Then, after the draw results are out and a tag is drawn folks start to think about what it actually takes to complete a pack in hunt, they start to back out. The "dropout" rate continues to increase throughout the summer. I bet fewer than 1 in 20 folks complete a pack-in hunt planned prior to the draw, generally ruining your hunt in the process. It is easier to plan on going it alone...
