The majority of elk are bailing on the high stuff within the next couple weeks regardless of weather in that area. as said by others the big bulls will be bachelored up in nasty country, I personally wouldn't be still hunting, you're just not covered enough ground that way. Glass as much...
Assuming I'm guessing the correct unit I'd be starting low and working up, a lot of the elk tend to be in giant herds, lots of country feels deserted, cover ground and find those big herds.
Assuming that the local SAR is using SARtopo that's exactly how it works: you scan a QR code at the command post and it gets you to the interactive map everyone is using, save your track and it uploads along with everyone else's. it's not quite updated in real time but assuming they are getting...
I've cooked inside the tent for ages, hang something disposable behind the stove to keep grease off the canvas if you're cooking bacon all the time but other than that its all good to go.
I'll second @Oak The RMBS is a great resource for connecting with past hunters, I found everyone I talked to was incredibly willing to share info, well worth the time to do some homework.
I think that's a pretty reasonable list, I'm probably getting a little slower than that on the runs but I haven't been running short distances much in the last year, the older I get the slower I like to go... I would add squats and deadlifts. I always feel better when I'm at least occasionally...
I've had both and far prefer the zoleo, with inreach messages going both ways occasionally seem to just drop into the void, or they arrive 2 days laterplus the earthmate app is so bloated with things you don't need that it barely functions.
Zoleo is fast, simple, and reliable, really all you...
Sad news that one of the biggest innovators in western hunting passed yesterday.
On a personal note I probably have Wayne to thank for some of my hunting obsession, growing up in Montrose where Carlton's calls was located my brother and I and a friend somehow found out that the guy we watched...
if the cert is something you need for work it's usually worth taking a Wilderness first responder the first time around, then every 3 years or so you can take a Wilderness first aid to recert, many places that require wilderness medical training require a WFR so may as well commit a couple of...

I'm a little shocked at how much water people are bringing, for a 7 mile hike in those conditions I'd bring a liter, and if I'm hanging out and making a day out of it I'd maybe bring a second liter but would be very unlikely to finish it... prehydrating is important, I usually drink at least a...
that would be good but you shouldn't miss Durango to Ouray over 550, and I personally would avoid I70 as much as possible if the goal is to have a relaxing vacation...
the buddy heater is ok for a quick morning wake up but it doesn't compare to a good wood wood stove for drying stuff or just general comfort, I've been comfy in a t shirt in -20 weather with a good fire rolling...
If I had that kind of money I'd be so busy using it exactly like that I wouldn't have time to post anything on social media, props to him for finding the time to stir up the internet masses...
