    Good tip. I didn't know programmers were a thing. Thanks.

    E-Bike (DIY direct Order)

    QuietKat advertised "VPO" with mode selection on the Ibex. Is that feature available with this or similar bikes?

    LEM Chamber sealer issues. Thoughts?

    Not sure I have any diagnostic input, but I'll share my experience. I have the same model and currently have a little over 1100 seals without any issues. With a completely empty chamber my unit takes about 33 sec to achieve 100 kpa vacuum on the screen. For unfrozen product, like fresh ground...

    Maybe the lowest priced option to benchmade altitude

    I had the same question, unfortunately will not be able to answer with accuracy. The factory edge on my knife was not uniform along the blade and inconsistent on each side. The burr was removed, so still sharp, but an annoyance. I figured the factory grind would make future sharpening hard, so...

    Bear Euthanized in WA

    Not a bear expert, and haven't been following this story closely, but euthanizing might have been the best option based on a few fun facts I learned from the former wildlife manager of a popular tree farm in that region. First, he would tag and relocate bears to the far North border up by...

    $50 Solid glass. I have the previous gen version from 2017. Very happy. Can't go wrong at this price.

    Cabelas Euro HD 10x42- $549.98, 10x32- $399.98

    Nope. But like yours, no issue with glass quality, so no reason to reject. To be fair to the situation, I called Cabelas a short while ago and they voluntarily offered a partial credit after I explained what I received. So while shipment was disappointing, I feel they made it right. No...

    Cabelas Euro HD 10x42- $549.98, 10x32- $399.98

    I'll second receiving a "used" pair. Sticker on the box, binos shipped loose inside, missing the case and strap, fingerprints on all the glass. Hope others fair better.

    Washington Elk

    Is there a distance limitation from Seattle, or is the whole state fair game? There are some pockets of public land that hold deer, elk, and bear that can be day hunted from Seattle. If you're into a backcountry experience, there is some awesome bear hunting in the wilderness areas nearby. Peak...

    Elk calibers for western wa

    Both the 45-70 and 375 will get the job done. I prefer larger bores in denser cover where shot opportunities and angles may be limited. Heavier bullets with more momentum will help deliver on less than ideal angles/placement. I'm partial to a bonded bullet like the accubond. If you find yourself...

    Packs in the rain

    I also suggest the multiple lines of defense if the situation warrants. I hunt the PNW (rainforest) that has potential to rain big drops for days. I use a waterproof pack cover on the outside and waterproof compression sacks for essentials on the inside. I've been happy with the OR brand sacks...

    NEMO HORNET TENT

    I have the 2P. Great tent for my use... high mountain packing where weight and bugs are concerns. I use it as a one person with limited gear inside. It would be a tight fit for two people with all gear outside. So far so good on quality. No issues with mine. On durability it is light, as...

    Are you a list kind of guy?

    Also a list guy and fan of spreadsheets, although I mostly use for complex trips. I find it a good way to "hack" my efficiencies. My spreadsheet is similar to others with all items, weights, and quantities listed. However, I use drop down menus to fill out the list. Just click and choose which...
