    Things you have noticed in the gym

    While we're on the subject, ya'll ever had some rando, usually with a classic "dad bod", walk up to you in the gym and inform that they used to bench "three fiddy" when they were in High School? Nothing screams " I peaked out in High School" more than than any story that involves peak lifting...

    Summer Sausage Recommendation

    For the purposes of accuracy, actual summer sausage is a fermented sausage and that's what gives it the funky/sweet taste and makes it stable at room temp for so long. The summer sausage kits do not involve a fermentation process. I'm not sure you could technically consider that "summer sausage"...

    CO 3rd Rifle Thread

    Seemingly perfect conditions this morning for deer hunting. Tons of tracks (deer and elk) from the last ~12 hours, but I didn't see any movement except for 3 does I jumped about 11:30 AM. Only heard 2 shots all day.

    CO 3rd Rifle Thread

    The search and rescue team initially tried to ride in on ATVs and their Hummer, but couldn’t get to the hunters because of the snow. They ended up trading in their original vehicles for snowmobiles.

    Drying Gear in Hot Tent (SO Cimarron, others)

    It definitely helps to get your gear up high where there is more heat. You can use your tripod if you have one. I also use a couple of loops of cord around the center pole. A clothes line will also work.

    Early/mid season glove

    I personally can't do the mechanix style gloves for active wear as I get too much moisture build up. I do almost always have a pair of Kuiu Guide gloves with me and they'll last about 3-4 seasons. I personally haven't figured out a way to not have ~4 pairs of gloves with me when the temps...

    Things you have noticed in the gym

    Had a guy at my current gym for awhile who is a record holder in the masters division in some federation I'm not very familiar with. 67 years old with a (raw) bench press in the high 400s. His squat and deadlift aren't near as impressive compared to his BP but crazy strong for his age. I want to...

    Bear shot placement- vitals vs anchor

    Not a fan of shoulder shots on bears. If I can determine where the shoulder seam is, slightly forward of middle, but when you get into longer shots, you often won't be able to determine such detail on a bear unless you overzoom on your optic. Their longer hair can make determining such a precise...

    Bitcoin

    I've been buying BTC (Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust ETF) and ETH (GRAYSCALE ETHEREUM MINI TR ETH COM UNIT ETH) steadily during this timeframe. I'm particularly stacked on ETH.

    Reflections on 2024 Elk Hunt

    Covering ground that is off trail, using game trails as much as possible. Yes, it sucks more often than not.

    Rucking Gear Question

    A weighted vest is not going to have the same training effect as weight on your back, driven into your hips. Personally, I don't worry about the wear and tear. All of the components that wear out with hard use over time (hips belts, butt pads and shoulder straps) are easily replaceable on...

    CO Mountain Lion Ballot Initiative: Continuous Updates

    Good work by all parties involved in informing the public. 6 months ago, I was not optimistic on this, but my optimism grew seeing the effort that individuals and groups put into fighting this. Thinking about a ballot initiative that prevents future ballot box biology and simultaneously...

    CO Mountain Lion Ballot Initiative: Continuous Updates

    Check how close Arapahoe county was. They went "yes", but only by less than 1%

    CO Mountain Lion Ballot Initiative: Continuous Updates

    Safe to say this is locked up? Only San Juan and Alamosa counties remain and those aren't large populations. San Juan is less than 1000 people.

    La Plata County looks like a no. As a resident, I was sweating that one a bit.
