    School Me on Hunting In Grizz Country

    I have hunted elk in the fringe zones of Wyoming and never really worried about it. Then again, I have never see much sign to give me reason to be concerned. A few weeks ago we were in Montana, around Big Sky, and I gained a whole new respect. I always practice bear safe camp protocol, no...

    Companies that go the extra mile.

    I opened this thread to throw a shout out to Alaska Guide Creations. Not surprised to see the OP mentions them as the reference. They've been a great company to buy from with exceptional customer service. Just ordered another bino harness today, for my wife. Exo Mountain Gear has been great...

    What Ammo is This?

    That sure looks like it. Wow. Impressive knowledge. I was not even aware of that caliber, though that's really not saying much.

    What Ammo is This?

    I popped one open this evening. This is what I found. Also put measuring tape on it I appreciate all the helpful ideas, though I haven't been able to offer thr best clues until now.

    What Ammo is This?

    Good idea. I will do that this evening. He wasn't a track guy, that I'm aware of. Thanks for the reference re: fiocchi as well!

    What Ammo is This?

    Found this ammo cleaning out my wife's grandfather's storage unit. He didn't have any firearms, or any other ammunition, so not sure why this was in the lot. Just curious what it is. I'm admittedly ignorant with gun knowledge and my Google skills couldn't turn anything up. I thought .410 at...

    Camp Showers

    Good point. I thought they had a version that came with a pump, but got mixed up with another brand: Camplux Tankless Camp Shower Looks like a washdown pump like I have on my boat. I imagine something like that would work with the Flame King?

    This is pretty dang genius. It is making me reconsider my approach.

    Re-Booting -Trials and Blisterations

    Ha, same. If you're a 12.5-13 on the left and a 12-12.5 on the right let's do some trading 😆

    Camp Showers

    Much appreciated. Great to hear that the propane seems to work well. Models I'm looking at have a small diaphragm pump to pull water.

    Camp Showers

    You guys read the part about bringing the wife along, right? She's a bad a** and hasn't made this an issue. But, I'm not a caveman or a rutting elk and appreciate the scent of a clean woman.

    Camp Showers

    Seriously considering a tank less water heater setup for base camp. My hunting style usually consists of 2-3 day satellite excursions with recharges at a truck base camp. This season and next I'm cashed in on Elk points (wife too) in a unit where day hunts are going to be practical. We also...

    Re-Booting -Trials and Blisterations

    I've heard great things about Zamberlan. Unfortunately, they aren't a good fit for my foot shape so they just aren't for me.

    Re-Booting -Trials and Blisterations

    Altitude GTX. They were great for a short while, but not going to last. Definitely not worth the price tag IMO. I wanted to try the Laponia, but my size wasn't in stock.

    Re-Booting -Trials and Blisterations

    This is where my lightbulb went off. I switched from some lunky Wolverines to a pair of Caterpillar work boots and man alive the difference those ounces made in how I felt at the end of the day was incredible. I got the same feeling with the Crispi Altitudes, but the durability sacrifice...

    Re-Booting -Trials and Blisterations

    I've run Schnee's Beartooth for the last 9 years. They have been great boots; durable, fit my picky feet more than OK and waterproof. The only downside, to me, is the weight penalty. I've been on a journey trying to lighten my boot weight and decrease foot/leg fatigue heavy leather boots cause...

    Maven Rangefinders?

    I bought the CS and it was absolute trash. I chose that model because it was a smaller, and I mainly archery hunt. I also didn't like the external knob on the RF.1. Coming off using the same range finder (Nikkon) that I had for 15 years, I thought it was user error. I struggled with getting it...
