    Quitting Alcohol

    NAs were a good alternative when in social situations when I first quit. It didn't take too long to realize those NAs or social situations were not something I enjoyed or needed. They prolonged something I needed to move away from, but were certainly a useful aide in quitting.

    1P tent recommendations

    Kuiu morning star has been a good 1 person tent for me. Says it's a 2p but it's just right for 1 with gear.

    Fattest bear contest- who knew?

    Just reporting what I had heard on the local radio, but the correction is certainly appreciated. We are also voting for Chunk.

    Anyone order from Bob Leisure.com

    I've ordered 3 or 4 pairs of skis, a few pairs of boots, and a couple sets of bindings. The shipping is stupid fast seeing as how it comes from Germany. Better experience with them then a lot of companies here. There are some spelling errors on their website that make things seem iffy, and the...

    Fattest bear contest- who knew?

    had it for years now. I heard on the news that this year they delayed it because the webcam people use to watch it had a bear fight that went to the death. Guess they like nature to a point.

    Goat Knives ghosting me?

    Was unaware that before purchasing items the new normal is to have to check on their Instagram to ensure they are doing business properly. Pretty unfortunate, but atleast when it involves some well known characters, it seems like it's worth doing.

    First elk hunt

    If I find rubs etc I wouldn't say I focus on that area, but certainly it's a place to start trying to figure out why they like that area, how they access it and how they exit it. I feel like an area that has a good amount of rubs both old and new is obviously somewhere they feel comfortable and...

    Communication issues with the wife.

    As someone who is currently dealing with exactly this, I could not agree more.

    Balcony waterproofing membrane.

    You said "balconies" as in multiple. Are you doing this as a contractor or a homeowner? If this a a contract job, my suggestion is decline the work. The liability is massive, especially if these balconies are over occupied space. There are methods listed in the NTCA handbook for exterior tile...

    2P Freestanding Tent with best ventilation

    I like my kuiu mountain star, but I would not like it as much with 2 people. Could be done, but I prefer it as a large 1 person tent. No condensation issues for me thus far.

    What a nice surprise

    Sounds like a great trip. I think most people are pretty friendly outwardly, at least those who run into each other on the mountain, but bad apples in every bunch for sure. Why'd the other guys partner leave him, it was planned and just out of time, or other circumstances? All these posts about...

    2024 September Haul Road Caribou Report

    cheaper to fill up cans in Fairbanks, but not stopping in Coldfoot seems like asking for a problem. I could skip Coldfoot and use the cans but I'd be stressing to get to Deadhorse to get everything filled back up. I'd rather be able to hunt a few days before needing to get gas or worrying about...

    Lost 82 year old elk hunter in Oregon - good ending

    Old fella was probably putting the stalk on a massive bull and then a bunch of s&r guys come bursting out of a fern to ruin it all. He would have pushed the locator for the pack out. Old guys are crafty.

    Large pack for 10+ day trip similar to the new MR Metcalf 100

    I have a sawtooth that I switch for the beartooth if I need to haul more stuff. Can usually get by with a dry bag in the meat shelf with my camp that gets dropped when I reach my area, then just hunting with the sawtooth.

    Hiking safely in big game country

    We have moose where I am and when they are problematic in town, the officials who go out to remedy the problem are always doing it with a shotgun. Certainly there are other ways to dispatch a moose, but generally if they know that is the issue, they take a shotgun.
