    Sub 3lb shelter and sleep system

    they have been slowly winning me over as well. not as a do everything, but when going fast and light, especially short scouting trips where lots of ground needs covered or an area you know you dont have to camp exposed. i will likely have one by next spring...

    Packs: How Comfortable is Comfortable?

    i really do think the kifaru waistbelt is where most of the comfort is derived from. but, another thing to think about is how used to the load is your body. are your hips, core, and low back thinking just another day, or ohmygawd, why are you punishing me like this!

    shemagh for late season?

    Staying focused on elk while missing your family

    you probably just need some dirtbag friends (like me) who dont have any kids and do awesome stuff all the time to get you primed for some time away!
