    Bitcoin

    I have no grand sight for what BTC or crypto will be. I have reason to believe it will be around and gaining for decades. I’ve educated myself on the cycles and how it all works and I’m here for the turning, for example, $1K into $15k over a couple years and cashing out for hard assets. Then...

    Bitcoin

    I have a bunch of crypto. A decent amount of BTC. A pile of ETH and SOL. But I’m in probably 30 projects at any time. I bought my first BTC in early 2017. In early 2020 and over Covid I got a phd in crypto. Literally thousands of hours researching how everything works and different projects...

    Bitcoin

    To put it as simple as possible: -BTC is the ONLY deflationary currency. Gold used to be considered deflationary, but we will always find more. -The most BTC that will ever exist is 21 million. Not a decimal more. Although several million are already considered lost, so it’s more like 18...

    Newberg says a $40 elk tag (or whatever it cost) is a $25,000 elk tag for residents.

    Moose Mount Display

    Snare cable through the skull with a couple ferrules crimped on. The hook I used is a bit excessive, but this one is in the garage. The guy that did my first moose bent large bolts and then attached to skulll from the inside with a locking nut. Then an eye bolt in the wall. I add safety cables...

    Alaska Dall Sheep - Undersubscribed Non-Res Draw Hunts

    I believe it came through in 2022. And then last year the same individual who got it passed was back at the BOG meeting with a new proposal because the unintended consequences of the original change was that the tags they were allotted were not the premium ones for the unit. That more specific...

    Alaska Dall Sheep - Undersubscribed Non-Res Draw Hunts

    Are guides charging $30k for walk in hunts?

    How does one become a poacher?

    No. I can see the confusion. We’ve always referred to heading into the field as “flying out.” “What day do you fly out?” and “We fly out this afternoon” are common pre-hunt phrases. Obviously a person would fly out of the field too, so I get it.

    How does one become a poacher?

    Cannot hunt same day as flying into the field in most instances. That’s the law that was broke. AK doesn’t have shooting hours. To clarify, I did say a plea deal should be given here. That’s probably the wrong word. A person in this instance should be prosecuted appropriately. With maybe slight...

    How does one become a poacher?

    I have one friend that grew up so poor that her Dad poached deer for food. Her Dad is a friendly, hardworking, standup guy as far as I’m concerned. He was never caught and I met him a couple decades after those days. Sad to say I know two guys that got busted poaching this year. Both archery...

    The Rokslide Stock Traders Thread

    Yes it was. I mentioned METAL on Thursday and we’re up 3x since then. Officially up 10x since entering two weeks ago. For those now scratching their heads about the Bitcoin halving, I’d very strongly encourage you to look into it and make a decision as you see fit. Here’s the monthly chart of...

    Elk Hunting/ Family Camping Tent Suggestions?

    We use an Arctic Oven 10 with two kids. I’ll probably buy a 12 when they get a little older. I can set it up alone in maybe 15 minutes and can do it with my wife in 5-10 minutes. We have a SO cimarron and had an SO 8. Along with a pile of other tents. My wife didn’t like the floor less. Too many...

    Haul Road Wolves

    Remember you can always use your caribou tag on a wolf if the opportunity arose and temptation really got to you! It would be a heck of an expensive tag to put on a wolf, but I’d personally do it with a smile! Maybe others can chime in on if there is an outfitter or stop up there that can sell...

    Why the NR HATE?? Let's fix it!

    There is a point, but we’re a LONG ways from it. States could charge $5-10k for sheep tags and sell every one no problem and hardly have folks drop off the PP game. Easily $3-$5K for elk tags. I only plan on hunting elk out of state maybe once every 10 years. To buy a tag for $5K and drive from...

    Grinding shank meat

    Our moose shanks we leave with another burger bag and donate it to people in the village we hunt out of. They appreciate it more than we do and hopefully waste much less. Anything smaller than a moose, I just grind the whole thing. I grew up in a butcher shop. So we ate a LOT of cross cut...

    Why the NR HATE?? Let's fix it!

    AK is actually proof that what the OP is proposing can be done. Politicians continue to assign board members despite the average voter’s desire. Largely influenced by a lobby that in result is keeping the state wide open to NR. The trade off is that the same lobby is the group making sure the...
