    DIY Quilt

    In base layers and around freeing and it wasn't warm enough for me. I do tend to sleep cold. The Klymit I got is about double the R value of the T-rest.

    Tarp shelters in high winds

    The 8" groung hog style stakes were not holding in the weak, mossy alpine soils. As others have said - pile rocks on the stakes.....big rocks ;)

    Be honest with me, Is this a dumb idea?

    Have you considered moving to BC, Yukon, Alaska or NWT? :D Sorry, can't offer any advice on the Montana Unlimited.....

    Mental Toughness, GRIT, and Hardcore!

    Yea that mountain hunting is only for the toughest of manly men. If you can't do 50 consecutive one legged pistol squats then may as well stick to the truck and road hunt :p. Then again:

    DIY Quilt

    Haven’t made my own quilt, but run a 0f EE revelation on a Klymit Static V Insulated Ultralight (the old style thermarest wasn’t warm enough with a quilt).

    Your favorite Elk pack

    It also happens to be my favorite caribou pack. The waterproof X-pack fabric is a nice feature in the mountains, but a little noisier in the timber. I hear you on the distributors...being in northern BC there isn't much access to the high end packs. I can't compare to Stone Glacier, Kifaru...

    Your favorite Elk pack

    The Seek Outside packs are comfy and light weight. Modular frame design can go from 24", to 26", to 28" by easily adding extensions. Lots of options for fixed bag style, vs removable bag with load shelf (as shown above - the Evolution frame and compression talon works awesome for packing...

    6.5 PRC?

    Something like the 140 Accubond (SD 287 and BC 509) is where I would start with load development....

    Patagonia (please read)

    Cougar is pretty darn tasty too! Personally i'm trying to steer clear of brands that support trying to shut down hunting, be it ungulates or predators. Black Diamond is owned by the Clarus Corp who also owns Sierra Bullets....

    MR popup vs badlands ascent vs SG Kiowa

    The fabric on the Badlands is more quite and makes less noise when brush rubs against it. Also on the BL the rubber patch on the shoulder strap does help hold the rifle sling in place.

    Meat Shelves..... like or dislike?

    My vote is for the meat shelf. As others said it adds so much versatility.

    Do you think they read our comments?

    On a side note i dig the hip vents on my Attach pants. Found they did help dump heat when going uphill.

    Mountain Smith LT vs Mountain ambush Tarp

    I own neither, but have used floorless shelters and tarps. Both are listed at 1lb 14oz - so my choice would be the MT Smith LT shelter. The LT shelter would be easier to set up and more storm worthy. The ambush tarp would give more options for set up.

    King for a day... Hunting Laws you wished existed, or didn’t exist.

    That we could pack a hand gun while archery hunting, be nicer to have for back up then just pepper spray. Also a 22 pistol for plinking grouse....
