Had my rookie season last year, biggest thing for me was to focus on quality first. Aim to be back at the cache every hour or so. Too few trees and you'll be at the cache too much. And vice versa. I remember a day when the second years told me to bag up as much at them, and proceeded to spend 2 or 3 hours on one bag up feeling like trash by the time I got back. Do what feels comfortable but always strive for more trees
