I know this is a silly place to ask tax questions but I haven't had any luck searching and I'm not aware of a place where I can just call and ask questions..
Can backpacking gear purchased for a paid season in the woods be deducted? For 6 months we were in the backcountry. Our tents served as our homes, even on our days off. I've read boots can be deducted but I purchased a new tent, backpack, sleeping pad and other misc. gear such as bladders and batteries etc.
