WOW Idaho rivers Rafting Draw!
I call it the household annual donation to rec.gov. I have never once drawn a single permit during any of the prime summer months, in ~15 years of applying. Both my wife and I put in and she’s been picked once for the smith (not rec.gov) but it was during the height of Covid so we had to return...- JoMo

Solid season! Making it look easy but it’s clear you worked for it. Thanks for the write up. -
New pack recommendations
My vote for Exo as well. Can’t say enough good things about their pack. I got one for my wife and have turned two friends into theirs. I have progressed from my Gregory that I used about 12+ years ago until it was clear that would not cut it for backcountry hunting, to a Kuiu, then to an Exo K4...- JoMo

New year's eve dinner.
First year in a while we didn’t do a Wellington. Love those damn things! We made some “death bed tacos” again with some moose along with a few cocktails. Those are like crack if you haven’t tried the recipe from Hanks new book. So simple but so good.- JoMo

2026 sasuage and processing thread
We’ve mostly mixed our own blends. I’ve made a google sheet that I can simply tweak the input for pounds of meat going in to adjust the spices and fat. I’ve adjusted the recipes to our family’s liking over the years. That said, my wife wanted something more like “Jimmy Dean” for breakfast...- JoMo

2026 sasuage and processing thread
Made about 60 pounds of loose sausage total two weekends ago. Got the help from our kids and one friend’s kid who is excited about getting more into hunting. Was a fun time for the kiddos to be a part of it all. Gave some out for Christmas gifts to friends and family. Made about 30 pounds of...- JoMo

What you all cookin for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day
Per usual - posole with red chile today with the extended family midday. We then made my daughter’s favorite for tonight - slow cooker carnitas for tacos. Tomorrow it’s French toast in the morning with the kiddos and then grazing all day before some big ribeyes for dinner. 70 in Denver...- JoMo

Que Picante - homemade hot sauces
It’s definitely a fun thing to mess with. Now that we have the go to recipe, it’s cool to experiment with different types. This summer I tried a fermented one with green habaneros, jalapeños and tons of lime. The added fermented element is awesome - especially with eggs in the morning.- JoMo

Hank Shaw - “Boarderlands” cookbook
We finally made those too. Absolute insanity. So good. We made it with some flank I took from the moose this year. These are a new go to for tacos going forward. @Hunting Wife wasn’t lying - do not skip the onions. We also used some of the hot sauce we just made. We also did the Chile...- JoMo

Pack workouts
I’ve been doing them for a few years now. Started with a simple bag of sand from Home Depot that I duct taped around like crazy. Simple and cheap. I would strap that into the meat hauler portion of my pack. Started with a kuiu pack but switched to an Exo about 2.5 years ago. Now I only use...- JoMo
