New Zealand touristy stuff and Red Stag hunt
Here’s my stag and Tahr. And I got my Wyoming pronghorn from last year back too. I had completely forgotten about the horn growth on his nose. Between that and the split prong on his left side I think he has some cool character.- npaden

New Zealand touristy stuff and Red Stag hunt
Trophies are home and on the wall. This is turning into my son’s trophy room. Plus he has his big elk and his nice gemsbok in the living room. Not bad for 19 years old. At 19 I had a few skull capped mulies and a skull capped pronghorn that I didn’t realize you needed to pull and clean the...- npaden

The Dog That Caught the Car - AKA Lazy Arizona Elk Hunt
Looks like some good antler chews. I think you could get $16 a pound from an antler dealer for fresh brown. ;)- npaden

Bots and Colorado tag reissue list
I don't understand how they allow the tags to get returned DURING a season? A goat tag!! But it has 6 days left on it. Crazy. Some other tags that will have 4 days left on them.- npaden

The Dog That Caught the Car - AKA Lazy Arizona Elk Hunt
Good luck! Enjoying the updates, hope you find a mediocre one to put your tag on! I've hunted elk a few different states and the most talkative elk I've seen by far have been the ones in Arizona. Sat near a big group one afternoon and it actually almost got annoying how much they were...- npaden

Container Cabin Build
We’re going to find out in a week or 2. I’m doing all this at my house and going to then have it delivered 120 miles away to my hunting property just north of Paducah.- npaden

Container Cabin Build
Actually making progress again. Got the floor done today. This metal section is the whole reasons I’m putting in the floor. Done with the floor! Had 1 unused plank left over and a few cut pieces. Made the table out of the same laminate countertop material. Down to trim around the windows...- npaden

Container Cabin Build
Bad news from the weekend is that the 40x60 gravel pad that I had put in isn't 40x60 - more like 35x75 and it isn't gravel and it isn't packed in. And not even close to leveled out. There is some gravel in there but it is pretty loose and not sure how well we will be able to get it packed in...- npaden

Putting up some new hunting blinds.
Made a very quick video. You can see how we lifted it with the excavator off the tractor if you want to check it out.- npaden

Putting up some new hunting blinds.
Made a quick little water hole behind the new blind. Haven’t gotten it filled yet though. I have other water on the place but the thought is that the mature bucks will prefer the one with a little cover.- npaden

Putting up some new hunting blinds.
Took longer than I expected, and an extra trip, but got a couple hunting blinds put up on my new place this weekend. They actually loaded up and rode really nice. First one was the bigger one but it was only going on an 8’ stand. Tractor can lift 8’6” so thought we were golden. But we...- npaden

Container Cabin Build
I'm doing queen bunks on the end sideways - you access from the front. Then on the side I'm doing a twin loft with a futon under it. No fancy separate bedroom for my guests! ;) I could build some kind of shelf/step deal that you could access the top queen bunk and the twin loft bunk from...- npaden

Container Cabin Build
I'm putting the elastometric? roof coating on the storage one for sure. May end up adding it to the cabin one down the road it it works well on the storage one. I'm thinking of having a very slight angle on the containers sloping toward the outside (maybe 1/2" over the 8' width) to help...- npaden

That seems wider than 7'? The width of the container does put a crimp on things. Don't think I could incorporate that. That looks VERY well laid out and cool though!- npaden

Container Cabin Build
Okay this is what I think is the final version. This quote came back at $10,680, the 12’6” walls with the 3’ of upper sheeting was $11,580. So I like the looks better for the 10’ walls and a 13’5” 5th wheel would technically fit still, I just don’t see myself ever taking mine up there but...- npaden

Okay. Been going back and forth on the height and sidewalls. Here’s essentially the options I’m down to. I can think of pros and cons for having a 6" gap between the top of the containers and the bottom of the roof. It really wouldn't be quite that much because the drip edge would come over...- npaden

Actually just got a quote today for a 24x40 to go between the containers. Figured why not just go ahead and get it done now instead of waiting a couple years and deciding I needed one then. Just under $11k. AI drew up a layout for me. I’m not going to put a roof over the containers and...- npaden

Agreed, that would be the easiest. Just trying to avoid it looking like a bowling alley. Pretty much committed to them running sideways now.- npaden
