    Favorite Trail Foods

    All those bars that Bobo's make are like crack. I like those honey stinger waffles. Taste good and its not a snack that will melt or crumble apart. Also a go to which i will sometimes call "lunch" since id rather save firing up the stove for dinner is a zip lock of vanilla protein, granola...

    Is 55mm selling myself short??

    Very shitty Vortex Diamondbacks. Sounds like the “right” answer is to upgrade these first. But with only making one big optics purchase this year, I’d hate to head out west without a spotter again. I know I said im proabbly not judging animals but 2 years ago OTC Colorado I had a bull at 600 at...

    Is 55mm selling myself short??

    Yeah so my intent for the spotter would be to find the animals, not necessarily for judging after finding them with binos. Definitely would want to play more of the scanning the mountain game. I do plan on bringing 10 bys but nothing bigger than that. I already have a pair so why not bring them...

    Is 55mm selling myself short??

    Hey guys. I am defintiely "that guy from back East" when it comes to western backcountry hunting. That being said I have very little time behind a spotting scope so trying to make a decision on such a large investment has been very stressful. Budget: Comfortable spending around $2k or so to...

    Enlightened Equipment?

    Thanks for all the feeback guys! Lots of good stuff so thats good to hear. I am going to give EE a try. I went with 30 deg Rev. I do a lot of summer backpacking and will have this in case i do finally make it out for real early backcountry hunt or scouting trips. Any other hunts beyond that time...

    New Jersey Bear Hunt

    For the guys back here in the East, I have been trying to keep tabs on the NJ bear hunt. Still cant believe they through it out there last minute last year but sounds like they will have a hunt again this year. Question is, has anyone heard anything about baiting ?

    Marathon Training w/ Mountain Training

    I really found the significance of rest to be true when I did a taper for my last race. A 36 mile ultra with 7,000 ft of gain. I did like 70 miles in a week that ended 2 weeks out. I kept things light and my body felt so good. Final days leading up to the race (especially with some extra carbs...

    Water filtration setups?

    Idk how i feel about squeeze filters anymore after too many issues with the Sawyer Squeeze but the Katadyn BeFree has been working really well for me on some hiking trips this summer. I will even bring it with me for longer trail runs. Also picked up a Steripen Classic, for me as long as the...
