What do I bring on a 5-day fishing/hiking/camping trip in Yellowstone's outback with 5 or 6 guys, that'll surprise the guys and make me The Man?

We already pack in Whiskey we'll pour in to plastic bottles. probably in Billings.

Lmao.

"hey, what's in the bag? You look like you're really packing heavy for this trip. You know it's a 5 day hike, right?"

"yeahhhh. But I want to be the man"

Honestly, my suggestion, find out what the locals are saying as far as flies go. Take a box just stuffed with them. You'll be set.

Bear spray. Definitely bear spray. Being the guy that can handle the bears makes you The Man and The Dude.

I used to sneak stuff into the other guys' bags before we left so they'd end up carrying it without knowing. Then you stop somewhere and say "man, a beer sure sounds good right now" and when they remind you that you don't have any ask them to check their packs just in case.

A gun. Yellowstone is basically Alaska of the contiguous 48.

Just bring a Hustler magazine. Something to look at while sitting around the campfire.

Yeah, booze, weed, etc.

What about a surprise box of flies for each angler? Fill the box with patterns appropriate for the water(s) you are fishing. If I were in your friends' wading boots, I would be much happier with a box of flies than contraband.

You forgot to say running shoes. Don't need to out run the bear just your friends.

Ask yourself what constitutes being The Man amongst your friends? The fishing, the drinking, the BS stories, or all three. Either way be yourself, enjoy nature and return it the way you found it.

After having a grizzly pop up on you, toilet paper would be nice and clean shorts would be too.

Take the same stuff back out that you took in! And the empty bear 🐻 spray cans. Don’t buy the cheap bear spray, if it is under 50 bucks, stay home 🏠. And a REAL whistle! The type that blows the wax out of your ears πŸ‘‚!!
