    Need New pack Frame Recommendations

    Hey Steve how tall are you and what size frame does the KIUI website recommend? I'm asking this as starting point so that I am able to help further after knowing that information.

    Big agnes sleep system was cold

    So is it a bottomless bag as the sleeping pad fits inside the sleeve? Or does the bag have a bottom and a sleeve? I ask because I have the big agnes mystic 15 degree bag and it has a sleeve to put the pad in. The bag itself does not have any insulation on the bottom with the idea being that...

    helinox cots

    Yes helinox cots work great, but I think it's worth the money savings to look into other companies. Hell Walmart just came out with one that is in their Ozark trail line I think (don't quote me on that I just saw it on the shelf in Walmart) and it's a fraction of the price and not much heavier...

    Anyone use a Kuiu Pack for backcountry bow hunting?

    I have the pro 2300 and it works excellent for everything you describe. If you need more room you can simply put stuff in a dry sack and put it in between the bag and the frame. They also have a pro 3200 that is money. Sent from my Pixel 4 XL using Tapatalk

    If you can swing it go to a sportsmans expo. That will give you the opportunity to get hands on. Sent from my Pixel 4 XL using Tapatalk

    Lathrop and Sons Encompass Boot Review **Updated 2/7/22**

    They are currently back ordered on supplies to build the custom insoles. Due to my busy season and me needing boots ASAP Stephen had them sent out so that I could start wearing them immediately. This puts me in a unique situation as I will be able to compare and contrast the normal insoles with...

    Seek Outside Pack Adjustment

    I hope the above video was helpful I used it a little when I fit my SO. Just from listening to your story, it sounds like you need to move your shoulder harness up just a little which would in a sense lengthen your setup. Once you get the backpack on with the should straps tight, tighten the hip...

    Semi Rectangular Sleeping Bag

    My big Agnes is incredible. Just get a good pad. And I think you would be amazed how big the stone is...all I've heard about them is how roomy they are. The Sitka bag is surprisingly roomy too. Sent from my Pixel 4 XL using Tapatalk

    Cold weather co sleeping with toddlers

    You aren't crazy I take my kids all over hell and almost never have a hot tent. I've found what works really well is a double sleeping bag for adults and then have them in their own sleeping bag or blankets on the inside. When it's warmer, I just put my kids in their own bags and they do...

    I haven't had any issues with simply leaving it bloody. It doesn't hurt anything and saves you the time and hassle of washing it. Sent from my Pixel 4 XL using Tapatalk

    Lathrop and Sons Encompass Boot Review **Updated 2/7/22**

    The custom footbeds are on back order due to materials being hard to get, that is why I don't have them yet. Initial impressions are good even with the regular insoles. I haven't walked much, only 14-20 miles but so far so good. I'll keep you updated.

    Lathrop and Sons Encompass Boot Review **Updated 2/7/22**

    Just wanted to update the thread. The boots arrived yesterday. They look to have solid construction, are comfortable for the first impression, not overly heavy, not a super stiff sole, and overall all are a good looking boot. For the first hunt in them, I will be taking them on an 8 day elk...
