pack out
Remove all gear
Pack out means to carry everything out of a place, leaving nothing behind.
The phrase is standard in outdoor recreation—hikers and campers pack out their trash rather than leaving it in the wilderness.
It also describes filling a venue to capacity: The band packed out the arena.
In hunting, to pack out game is to transport harvested meat from the field.
