Kurt Racicot EVO 40/56 Bag Dump
One of the most popular questions we get asked here at SG is, "What gear are you guys using?" Everyone in our shop has a little different hunting style, and that dictates their gear list, but the one thing we all have in common is trying to pack minimally. While we are all striving to reduce weight, the master at this practice is Stone Glacier Founder and Lead Designer Kurt Racicot. The refinement of Kurt's gear is the result from numerous solo sheep hunts from the Dall country of Alaska to the unlimited districts of Montana's Beartooth Wilderness. The video above gives you a look at the gear Kurt will be running for his upcoming 7-10 day sheep and goat hunts.
