    First hunt in grizzly country recap

    We have a massive black bear on our blacktail hunting grounds here in Washington. I used to think the same - but then ran into a list of all bear fatalities. Interesting, that the black bears most often predated humans. I’m not paranoid out there - but I always make sure to pack spray or my...

    Cost of Leases forcing people out west?

    I'm in Washington and unfortunately the trend of leasing out land has taken off with force out here. It used to be alright to buy a hunting permit that'd get you access to thousands of private timber acres. Now, they're being sliced into leases and sold to the highest bidder. I didn't think...

    Will Vehicle Prices Ever Decrease?

    Good time to sell used! I have a 2000 xterra in the driveway that I haven't driven in 3 years. The resale value on the damn thing has nearly doubled. Keep telling my wife I'm holding onto it as an investment....... yeah...... that's the ticket! :)

    Late Archery Blacktail

    Probably the most impressive buck I've seen outside of a magazine or something. Amazing! Thanks for sharing!

    Blacktail Wa?

    Yep - Archery West Side WA for me.... I focus on the peninsula mostly - got my first one a couple years ago (pic in my avatar) a nice 3x4.

    Is the stand alone GPS a thing of the past?

    I think the cell phone as the user interface is the way to go without a doubt. The user experience on the garmin topo devices is hot garbage. I don't like the inaccuracy of the weak cellphone GPS antennas. To get around this, I just pair my phone with my Garmin InReach via bluetooth. The phone...

    Gaia GPS: Adding Google Earth Imagery

    3d is only available on android as an experimental feature for now. They're working on extending the functionality to iOS. Thank you for the tip on adding the google data source! Worked like a charm for me! Updated sattelite imagery was one of my chief complaints!

    Firstlite disappointment

    I dig their merino shirts. They're great layers, don't stink up so fast like the synthetic options, and they're far more comfortable to me. The pants are prone to plucking if you traverse any country with thorns or brambles. I never considered their rain gear. If it's not goretex, it's a waste...

    Suppressor wait times

    Just got mine last week. It was 3 weeks short of a full year in terms of the wait. I heard rumors that the new e-filing system should speed things up, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

    Land Cruiser owners??

    They are a ton of fun. I have a LC200 and an FJ60. I'm not sure which I like more, but I do know that unless some unforseen financial hardship hits, I'll always have a LC in the garage. They're incredibly overbuilt, which translates into one of the most capable and reliable vehicles I've...

    Moving from WA to PA

    You're going to get spoiled rotten if you go steelhead fishing in the GL tribs. 20 fish days aren't unheard of. Yeah yeah yeah..... they're not real steelhead..... but hot damn, wouldn't you rather catch 20 instead of 2 in a whole season. You're probably getting out of washington just in time...
