    Week in Juneau???? (updated 8/15)

    Glad you had a good time. There was apparently lots of flooding there recently and I was curious if it affected your trip, but sounds like it did not. Would have been a bummer to make the trip and have it be disrupted by nature, but that is part of the adventure.

    October haul road caribou?

    Plenty of deer hunting to do in October, but I don't think I'd want to hunt the haul road that month.

    Anchorage Outdoor Shooting Range

    There is the rabbit creek gun range in Anchorage, there is another about 30 min out of town in Birchwood, and another off Maud road that is almost an hour away.

    Buoy 10?

    The fishing has been really good lately from everyone I have talked to. Biggest issue is getting through the natives to get the clipped fish.

    Lots of guys like those little folding 3 legged stools.

    My elk bowhunting soapbox.

    I leave my quiver on, take my pack off when available, and try to keep my shot inside of 30. Shooting far is fun during practice, but I am not hunting to see how far away I can get.

    Anyone call/bring in blacktail or black bear?

    I've called in mule deer while elk hunting with a cow call, both unseen deer and ones I spotted and just wanted to see how they'd react.

    Backpacking tent for me and 2 kids?

    I am in the same boat as you and looking at the big agnes cooper spur. Bugs are an issue and if we are hiking in they are already going to be uncomfortable, I'd like them not having issues with bugs as well. I like the idea of the seek outside twilight with the floor but not sure how bug proof...

    Justice finally served in Utah

    it is beyond difficult to be successful in getting the charges to actually stick, so becomes almost not worth the effort. I have seen cases with Facebook posts and video evidence from the defendant where they were 100% guilty, and admitting their guilt through braggadocios posts, not get...

    Need recommendation for Sz. 14 Wide

    I got the Schnee beartooth in the insulated and uninsulated versions and they have a lot more room than the renegades. They are a higher boot, which I wanted but I do like the lower cut of the renegades for light hiking which is about all that boot is good for.

    What do you do for a living? How can you help?

    TIle contractor. Probably can't help unless you're in my area but happy to laugh at the guy doing your project currently.

    Wilderness vs front country

    I feel like the amount of ground I can cover in non-wilderness areas leads to seeing more animals. I can night bugle a drainage from the road and if I don't like the area just drive elsewhere. If I pack in, I am going to be limited. I see plenty of animals in wilderness areas, but it has taken...

    One pack

    I like the mystery ranch system of being able to change bags. I have the sawtooth/beartooth combo and it covers most everything I need. But I will say owning multiple packs is kind of nice, I like to use my old Dwight Schuh sometimes.

    Anybody ever hunt with a slow arse bow?

    that like 100mph.... pretty dang fast. If you like your set up and shoot it well, the speed doesn't matter but I am sure there are others who feel differently.

    Oregon/Washington coast fishing late summer/early fall

    Buoy-10 is the big draw that time of year at the mouth of the Columbia river. Drake Radditz guide service is local out of the Hammond area and does a great job. Not sure if he does 2 person groups but he has a website, if not there are a lot of options for that fishery.

    Alternative to Eddie Bauer Guide Pro Pants

    Just got back from a bike ride and the wranglers were dirty so put on the costco pants. For $15 they are great. No thigh pockets but nice stretchy hiking pant. Good deal for sure.

    Alternative to Eddie Bauer Guide Pro Pants

    I have the wranglers and they've held up and wear well.

    Angled vs Straight

    I'm usually sitting if I am glassing and like an angled scope, just more comfortable and it's lower than my chin usually so I can pull the binos out without the scope being in my way. they certainly don't seem to work as well for truck window mounted viewing though in my experience.
