    Inreach mini 2 vs messenger

    I had the Mini and got the Messenger over the Mini 2. It has been awesome so far with sending and receiving. It definitely links faster over the Two as the antenna is a different design. I don’t use the mapping feature on the Mini as I have Gaia for that. The battery life was what really sealed...

    Wyoming Random Draw Is No More?

    Then add in wilderness areas with required guides… Wyoming already sent me the letter years ago that I would lose all my points.

    Painless load development (mine)

    @Formidilosus thanks for dumbing this down for me. Made it much more enjoyable this year when I decided to switch from a 145 LRX after less then desirable results on a moose and goat that eventually went down. 7SAUM 162 ELDM, had H4350 on hand, a lot of F-class guys seems to shoot it so why...

    The great sock debate 2024

    Hands down my favorite hunting sock, a bit blown away it's marketed as a 'hunting' sock but really is amazing https://darntough.com/products/unisex-merino-wool-boot-midweight-hunting-socks Cushion only where it's needed, warm enough when it's cold, not too thick for August with a great tight...

    Which water bottle holder are you using? I know the Kifaru takes two vertical slots but the Stone Glacier only takes one.

    KIFARU ARK FRAME review

    I’ve already rucked with it twice and I like everything about this frame over the duplex lite. The 26 was a big frame, the 25 feels perfect at 5’ 11”. I’m a 32 waist and the small is great. Hiking feels better at 45lbs now and I don’t feel I gave anything up at 105lbs either.

    New Packs from Kifaru 2024

    Sooo how many of you own the frame and how many are just speculating here? I've got my new ARK loaded to 105lbs (60lb sandbag + 45lb ruck plate) ... I'm coming from a 26" Duplex Lite and the frame is every bit of a dump truck as the last one. What pictures do you want to see? I'm 5' 11" 185

    Kifaru KU 4300 review **Updated 2/25/24**

    Of course once I got my setup I had to weigh it, 25" ARK Frame with Small Belt and the KU4300+Lid is 5lbs 10.5oz or 5.66lbs which is right on the money at 5.65lbs per the site. Already started surgery on the frame and pack. Need to do some measuring now to figure out where to cut the straps.
