We are planning a family canoe trip to Montana this summer and I’d rather trust folks on Rokslide than general advertised trips from the web. I’m looking for a adventure for my 7 year old daughter, a lab, me and my wife to canoe maybe overnight, fish and camp and just take them out west for a...
I own several quality tents and Hilleberg is by far the best. For 2 folks, the Nammajt 3GT is ideal for a tunnel tent. It is not free standing and has a large footprint. It’s a 4 season and has plenty of room for 2 and your gear can be stored in the vestibule. My weighs 8 pounds but I’m not an...
Ive used Cabelas outfitter 8 man and Cabelas xwt until my partner brought his canvas tent and stove. After that trip, I went and bought a canvas 16x20 and wood stove. My experience and advice is go with canvas and wood stove. You won’t regret it and my 16x20 is a huge tent but I can put it up in...
I like mine but had problems with canopy overhead blocking some signals when it should not have. Clear overhead in some areas but down in the valley and could not get a text out or receive. Not totally fool proof but better than nothing. I’ll always carry mine even with the issues

We usually hunt Archery season in Colorado. A couple of places I’ve found some wallows. But there are always some free range cattle in the area. So will elk use these wallows if used by the cattle? Is it a good place to set up if the weather is hot? Just trying to educate myself before next...
I've got practically new crispi Kanada pair. Worn once at camp and stored after that. Let me know if interested. Have 400 insulation. I'm out hunting and will be back later tomorrow.

It looks like WM is hands down the bag to go with... thanks for all the input. This is why I trust this forum... honest and quality opinions about expensive equipment from people who has been there before .... now time to shell out some dough for WM. Good luck with your hunts.

I took some white spray paint and painted an outline in the backyard which helped me make my decision. Go with the bigger size and Davis tents make the best.

Looking at getting a new sleeping bag (down) in 0 degree rating. Narrowed it down to western mountaineering sequoia and kuiu's bag. Anyone have experience with either one? Thanks in advance from Music City.

I used the Inreach last year in Colorado. Debated on sat phone and you can rent them from a company here in Nashville. But the cost was about the same for the Inreach. The Inreach subscription is very reasonable and you can suspend it when not using it. I did a lot of research before going with...
My black lab hasn't made it to the mountains just yet, only the hills of Tennessee so far... but she is getting some practice on the trails for that trip to Colorado

Thanks for all the replies. I didn't know the issues that this post would have created, but I've learned a lot. That is why we ask before we plan our trip as we respect all when elk hunting. We set up a base camp on a mesa top and mostly hunt from there. We have a couple that spike camp. This...
