    WA Black Bear Strategy

    WA has a great population of bears because the state seems to be managing for predators (can't hunt them with dogs or bait and closed the spring season). But the fall season is long. The advice to find a food source that doesn't get a lot of human traffic is spot on.

    Anyone have/had a Honda Odyssey?

    We had a 2007 and currently have a 2011. My wife has loved them and they do have a ton of storage. We had issues with the AC on the 2007 where it would turn on and off on its own and it needed a transmission at 210k. We haven't had any issues with the ECO mode. Ours transitions super smooth and...

    1P bivy/tent options

    I would look at Tarptent. The Protrail would give you much more room to work with and store stuff and weigh a pound less.

    Advice for a Kuiu Pro 6000

    Advice for a Kuiu Pro 6000

    I get mine very snug with four connection points. The obvious two at the top for the load lifters and the two on the back of the pack that touches the suspension near the bottom. The two at the bottom have clips so after you slip it over the top of the frame, you clip and tighten from the bottom.
