    What do guys find is the optimal volume cooking pot for drink and freeze dried meal? The jetboil systems are heavy and stove not so great.

    Pack/Gear Shakedown

    Sorry I missed the dates/month? If it's cold and wet then gators to save from wet pants and boots. If not, I find I overheat in gaiters WAY too much and they make noise. I have abandoned unless days of rain or hunting snow. Are you moving camp often, vs packing in and spiking and then day hunts...

    Petrel Ultralight Pot with heat exchanger 600ml

    I will have to time trial mine. I did a DIY heat exchanger, got a computer aluminum heat sink, drilled a few holes to lighten it, and then a 2" wrap of Ti with holes as wind break, paired with my Soto windmaster. It all fits in 600ml Toaks Cup/Lid with a 4 oz fuel can

    Hanging elk quarters while hunting

    If night temps below 50, then just have in bags and hang in shade, and you're good. Use a creek drainage with cooler air. Big factor is to decide to debone vs leave on. If marginal temps be very wary of bone sour on the big hind Qs. At minimum make a cut down to bone along a muscle group plane...

    "The Case for Destroying Old Forest Roads"

    The article is pretty tame and freely admits the issue is complex and many barriers/opposition arises when a road/trial might be proposed (from even the FS itself in some cases) ..it's evident that had we known 100 yrs ago about invasive species and effects of soil erosion on streams, maybe some...

    Maybe the Idaho NR System isn't so Unfair

    Comments aside...would you expect any different data?....it's seems quite useless data, other than its difficult to get a tag with each consecutive year....yes many people try to use multiple log in, have someone buy for them, pay guides/people under the table to get in line etc,.....but I guess...
