    MDWi Jacket/Hoody vs Ambient Jacket/Hoody

    @mtwarden on my post were on the Ambient Hoodie. In Stika's defense: they say this is NOT normal and are sending me another piece to test. In fact, of the dozens of folks I know who own the Ambient Hoody- no-one has this issue. Definitely don't take my experience as the norm as of yet. I do...

    Help me pick a multi-purpose cold weather boot

    I'll throw the Schnee Granite in the mix for you too. I have a couple of different pairs of different insulation weights. I've tried alot of books and these are by far my favorite 'heavy duty' (compared to my trusty Salomon) boot.

    Argali Rincon 2P 7 Days in the High(ish) Country

    It’s a palace inside at 9’ long. The half insert is 97” long, so I’d think you have plenty of room using it as a solo shelter whether going that route or a bivy.

    Hip Flexors- evidently a weak link for me

    You don’t think the culprit could be those bad boys being tired from logging 2023 miles this year, do you? ;-) I’ve found two things to be incredibly helpful for me on this front: strengthening the hip flexors with some band/mobility work (see below) + strengthening my rear glutes (opposing...

    anyone pay attention to their resting heart rate?

    He (the cardiologist I interviewed) did a really great job explaining why these things happen. It seems prolonged extremes on either side of the spectrum can (heavy emphasis on the word “can”) increase risk of negative outcomes. Though rare, it’s possible.

    Deep Six Small Game Points

    I had the hardest time finding anything for my deep six arrows too. I ended up just picking up a few cheap arrows of standard diameter/insert and using the plethora of options available for those. The one deep six small game head had a really poor design that involved rubber bands and...

    Carb increase

    Welcome to the forums, @Jdtidmore . Good question and it's dependent on alot of factors: What's your typical intake look like? What's the hunt you're planning to go on like? How many days? Length of time on a hunt is something I see often overlooked. Etc.. By and large, here's what I...

    anyone pay attention to their resting heart rate?

    Lower heart rates (BPM) can be a sign of better efficiency in the heart ( seems like an obvious statement). An interesting study topic is how it can carry some cause for concern of arrhythmias (some benign, some not so much) later in life. The risk seems to grow for older athletes who have...

    How long does a repackaged Dehydrated meal last in a ziplock

    To the OP original question: I've had some home-dehydrated meals in Zip-locs for years that were perfectly edible and without a plastic taste once cooked. I will toss them in the freezer (in general Zip-loc without an O2 absorber) if I plan to save them that long. I've left similarly packages...

    2 Flex full rubber rand one piece leather upper 600-1000 insulation boot

    A little stiffer than the criteria you've got here, but I have a pair of Granite's (Schnees) that I like quite a bit with 600g of insulation. I think it's a flex 3. I woke them quite a bit during the late season last year and didn't have any issue with ground feel, though there's some obvious...

    MDWi Jacket/Hoody vs Ambient Jacket/Hoody

    Snapped pictures of this a while ago for a review article I’m writing. Image on the left is piling where the underside of my arm rubs the shoulder harness of the pack. The right is after I took a fabric shaver to it. This was after a day of use.

    New ambient full zip with hood?

    I couldn't find anything to compare sizing from Sitka for a mens small, so hopefully this helps someone in the future if they're looking. This is the MDWi from Sitka in small. For reference, I normally wear a small in nearly all outdoor brands and would compare this to those from a fit...

    K4 Nalgene Holder

    I had some mornings where it was in the teens/high 20s. The top formed a thin layer of ice, which I expected given it's open to the air. The rest of it did fine. (32 oz. Nalgene HDPE).
