Don't be afraid to look at hiking brands also...
I have a set of Marmot Precip pants and they are great. They also have full leg zips and that is a must if you have some quick moving storms coming through the area.
Best of luck! Make sure to continue along with the Physical Therapy! A lot of people only get so many PT sessions built into their insurance plan and when those dry up, they do not go into PT anymore and stop. Make sure to keep it up - it will help immensely.
Obviously size of the panel is going to depend on your power needs (or how long you are going to have to charge your items). With that being said, I took a 28 watt cheap solar panel up on Denali and used it to supply power for my 3 week trip. I had 0 problems and it was able to keep up with my...

Hey, sorry I didnt see this message - I have been away from the house for a while.
The hunt went alright. I didnt get anything but I did get pretty close to a few bulls a couple of times. The first 2 weekends were great but as the season went on, they kind of disappeared and I couldnt locate...
Honestly, I dont have much experience to speak of. That time of year, the elk are in a different location. They could be further down and in the burned areas so you might have an easier time finding them? You could always look at the success rates and see if you think it is worth it. I enjoyed...
Well, I didn't draw a deer tag. I knew I had about a 50/50 chance with 2 points so that means I should be just about guaranteed next year.
The cool news is that I got a buck pronghorn tag in the same unit that my wife got a doe pronghorn tag. This will be the first time that we get to hunt for...
My family and I was just up there this past June and had a pretty good time. We started in Anchorage, went to Fairbanks (after my family picked me up in Talkeetna), then Back down to Anchorage, Seward, then over to Kodiak and then up to Utqiagvik (Barrow), and then home. A couple of notes:

Hey all -
With opening weekend fast approaching, I was wondering if anyone out there is going to be hunting in unit 501 this season for archery. I will be there on opening weekend and was wondering if anyone out there would want to team up. I will be hunting solo and have some area's marked...
I have a dirt old InReach (back when it was still Delorme) and I have had zero issues with it. I have taken it hunting/hiking all over Colorado and even climbed Denali with it this past spring. I don't have enough good things to say about my InReach.
The top is attached to the base by a mortise and tenon joint at each corner, so yes - those are glued in.
Honestly, I was surprised at how sturdy everything ended up being!
Recently, I had brought back some old cherry boards from Pennsylvania that my dad had made from a tree on our property when I was growing up. The wood is at least 30 years old and I decided to make a desk for myself since I work remotely. The thing that made me proud of this project was the fact...
