If he's making some salad he should probably go ahead and pack a nice light fat freevinaigrette dressing, it would go very well with his bon bons!

As for you other two clowns, the bon bons amy very well make it up the mountain. I'll take a picture eating one with my big monarch bull.

Buckeye, I assure you there will be no shortage of fresh vegetables on the mountain... and they'll beat the life out of any premium salad I got in Grand Prairie, IL.

My headlamp came in real handy when we had to skin and quarter my bull up on the mountain after dark. A hell of alot easier than holding a flashlight in your mouth doing it.

And you might want to invest in a Primos bow sling. It makes climbing around boulders and blowdowns much easier being able to use both hands.

Hope this helps, and good luck with getting a monster bull.
