    Varmints chewing vehicle wiring

    My dad, who lives in Michigan, had a 2020 f150 and squirrels chewed his wiring up. The dealer mechanic said the wiring is now wrapped with some sort of veg/soy instead of petroleum based rubbers, and the squirrels supplement their diet on it. Don’t know if that’s true but it cost him a few...

    Varmints chewing vehicle wiring

    I know up in the sequoias if you’re away from your vehicle for an overnight hike, that they recommend driving onto a large tarp, and then wrapping your car like a present with the extra length up and over secured with bungey cords.

    WTB Belt for bullpac frame

    Looking for a different belt that can be hooked to a bullpac frame. Size large (38”) waist. The stock waist belt sucks - flimsy and doesn’t put any of the load on my hips. I’m trying to find alternatives until I can afford a nicer pack next year.

    WTS Zamberlan 960

    How many miles you got on them hogs? Hard to tell how used they are from all the dirt and hair. They’d need a thorough cleaning but I might be interested. Zamberlans just work for me. Seems like a good boot

    WTS Zamberlan Latemar NIB

    Too bad I can’t try these on before I buy. They look great, and zamberlan’s last fits my foot nicely. I have an olde pair of mountaineering boots from them that are too stiff for approaches/flat land stuff, so I’m in the market. I’ll see if I can try these on locally somewhere, and if I like the...

    K Frame Holster with Retention

    I bought this recently with the extra leather flap that can be added/removed. https://www.diamonddcustomleather.com/products/guides-choice-chest-holster I haven’t received it yet, but after looking around for a backpack friendly option, it seemed like a good product and figured I’d give it a go.

    Which sleeping bag ?

    I got mine from Moosejaw.com. But yea I think they’re made in France/Belgium. I was looking at WM/FF and valandre. The shocking blue was on sale at Moosejaw and it was a no brainer. I’m a bigger guy and really like the extra room in the torso. The foot box is excellent. The fabric is really...

    Leupold BX-4 and BX-5

    I just got the bx-4 10x42 and although I am a relative newbie with Bino’s, I will say that the lens covers on both ends absolutely suck ass. The first thing I did was go online and try to find aftermarket solutions, but haven’t come up with anything yet. (I am wide open for solutions on this) I...

    Backpacking newbie. Gear questions

    Neoair xtherm is very comfy, packs small and is light. I messed around with cheaper pads and yea, just get the good stuff. Kelty 2p tent was $150 10-12 years ago. Has a vestibule for gear, enough room inside for me to be comfy. Cheap, reliable, durable. No issues in that time. bags are a whole...

    Sleeping bags best and weight and price.

    Valandre is on sale on Moosejaw at least once a year. Snagged the Bloody Mary and the shocking blue over the past few years and they’re shoulder to shoulder with WM and FF
