Start saving all the lint from your clothes dryer. This makes for a great fire starter in case things are wet. You can also add some petro jelly to the lint to make it more moisture/wind resistant.

Good luck

Yeah it's public land and it's pretty mountainous. This will be my second trip there, the first time was in 2008 with my Dad and it was one of the best hunts of my life. I'm taking a friend this time.
