    High Altitude Mask For Training?

    The mask isn't going to do shit for you other than waste some of your money. I saw a guy running in one last night and just laughed to myself. What a marketing joke. The best thing you can do as a flatlander going to high altitude is do high intensity interval training. If you want to spend...

    Elevation training mask?

    Well, I was flipping thru TV channels last night and came across a story.... (no, not an infomercial), about these devices and how they benefit ones overall health, weight loss, breathing, stamina, and lung capacity. I want to say it was on CNBC. At first glance, it may seem to be a little...

    High Altitude Mask For Training?

    Yes, it can help your cardiovascular efficiency, but it's still a waste of money. All you have to do for free to achieve the same result is work harder so that you go into the same level of hypoxia. One would be much better served to spend the money on a heart rate monitor and use that to make...

    High Altitude Mask For Training?

    I have heard that guys that are going to hunt some seriously high elevation, where acute mountain sickness/HAPE/HACE are a threat, use an altitude tent over their bed weeks leading up to the hunt, primarily for health reasons. This is really only when you are going to be getting about 12-13k...

    First time Colorado elk hunt

    I'll also be a vote against the altitude mask training idea. Get in the best shape of your life, but the altitude mask really doesn't do anything to help. If you have unlimited funds and want to try it, you can sleep in a low altitude simulated tent over your bed at night, but those are very...

    First time Colorado elk hunt

    Good point there. I have hunted 54. I'm one of the ones that added a 0 to the hunt harvest. I will tell you that it's very vertical and tough terrain. Depending on how hardy your father is, it's something to take into consideration. Hight altitude is something that takes more than a few days to...

    Glock 20 10mm

    That is a sweet video. The physiological argument for the bear spray is that it will have an IMMEDIATE effect of massive swelling of the mucous membranes of the eyes, nose and throat. Will this stop a charge? Probably not, but when the bear hits you he is going to be thinking about his own...

    Sleeping bag advise please.

    Just a thought. A lesson from Cold Weather Survival Training. The bag is important. BUT, bed clothes are too. Use a skull cap, face mask if necessary, poly-pro underwear, light gloves and warm socks. You'll be nice and toasty (even without the redhead) using a lighter bag.
