    Trip wires for bear

    One of the deciding factors in why I went trip wire is from what I found when researching electric fences. We will be on foot backpack hunting. So it needs to be light weight. And small enough that it also works for a day pack. If there is electric fence kits that are as light weight and...

    Trip wires for bear

    I have been investigating using trip wires with alarms to place around meat or late day kills in AK for bear protection. Knowing from a distance something is messing with things would be helpful besides scaring them off. I am not a fan of the 209 primer or 12gauge ones unless its in front of...

    Should be easy to attach a tag to those ears. Any idea what causes this? Natural? Shotgun? My wife would be jealous of those eye lashes!

    Ideal Pack Weight

    We all have our own rafts. We divy some stuff up. First aid kits, shade tarp, boot dryer get split up. I prefer lighter over comfort. No sleeping pad for me. I can lay on a rock and sleep. Minimal clothes. Minimal food. I count on catching fish , shoot ptarmigin, or ducks for a meal a...

    Ideal Pack Weight

    Caribou and moose. Start out early September. Our weight does include pack rafts. They are 5-6 lbs. We would not be packing out a moose. We would use the small pack rafts to float a smaller tributary to a river where a local would meet us in his jet raft to take us out.

    Ideal Pack Weight

    100% it does. I have pack hunted with him before. Not a big guy. Watched him turn into a turtle when a pack pulled him over backwards. Helped him up and off he went. If your gonna be dumb you better be strong. In this case he knows he needs to drop weight.

    Hearing Aid Use

    Well making light is all I got left at this point. Lol. Sounds like there is no good fix. I do get off participating in some stupid conversations by acting like I dont hear. So I do have that going for me.

    Hearing Aid Use

    So I searched threads and didn't find exactly anything that answers this. I do not where hearing aids. I went and got tested and they told me a hearing aid wont help since its inner ear. But I am pretty sick of not hearing. If there is any ambient noise I am done. Family at a restaurant...
