    Puffy Jacket/Pants

    MT_Wyatt has it right. The Sitka Hyperdown stuff is going to be much more geared towards later season very cold hunts. The Stone stuff more mid season weight that may be stretched into late season with proper sizing and more layers underneath. Both are great pieces that will serve you well. I...

    Buy once-cry once Tipi & stove

    Lots of options these days. Check out Seek Outside. No one is going to question the quality or storm-worthiness of their Tipi.

    Bivy vs tent.

    This year Im going with a Durston Xmid1 fly, Katabatic Gear Pinion bivy, and a 5x9 tarp. Ultimate verastility and still pretty light. Sleep in the bivy only during nice nights. Setup the xmid in poor weather and use the tarp for in between/rain and sun protection during the day.

    What Happened to Sitka?

    I too have thought its weird they've done almost no marketing this year. However, most of the stuff that was on sale has been replaced by a new piece. Changes in the ambient line like the new hoody with a full zip and pockets, which looks like a direct response to criticism on the first one for...

    Colorado Left Over Tags

    This is how Colorado used to do it. I hated it. The tag I wanted would always come up while I was in traffic lol. Then you get guys running apps that notify you the second a tag comes available. I prefer this method even though its not ideal.

    Im going Tarp Bivy this year. Give me you tips and tricks

    So after a lot of thought, this thread, and playing with the different DST setups, Ive changed my mind and setup a bit. Mostly I was never really stoked about any of the pitches of the DST and my main goal is to be fast and efficient, not dicking with different pitches or having to adjust for...

    Seek Outside Nest

    I set mine up this weekend. I should have taken a few pics. The reinforcement patches are definitely frayed and the stitching isnt as good as normal seek stuff. All in all though its fine for a nest. I dont see where it needs to be perfect as in the grand scheme of things it doesnt take near the...

    Suggested Temp Rating of Backcountry Late Season Hunting in CO?

    I'll add this. I wouldn't do what I'm talking about without having a puffy like the Sitka Kelvin down windstopper which is 250grams of down with windstopper. Its almost another sleeping bag on its own. Also im comfortable doing this from experience and knowing I have the safety factor of a wood...

    Couple of weird things I witnessed last week. Summertime crazies?

    I've done this many a time. I always feel the worst for people struggling to back down the ramp. Its a tense situation for a rookie and everyone watching.

    Couple of weird things I witnessed last week. Summertime crazies?

    Thanks philos. Yeah these days its not worth it and I could careless what anyone thinks about me. Id rather be the quiet calm killer than the loud ego filled jerk off. My kids and wife need me to come home everyday safe and healthy more than I need to satisfy any ego. How does that saying go...
