    What does and doesn’t make it into your grind pile?

    In my experience I would not recommend mixing the tallow in with your grind meat. The tallow will get rancid very quickly once stored in the freezer.

    Coldest Temp you have camped/hunted in?

    My family and I (wife and 3 kids age 3-9) camp out regularly through the winter in northwest alaska. When it gets really cold we don’t go, but have spent a few nights out where it -20 or colder. Good gear goes a long way. We have used a mix match of sleeping bags and tents, but one constant has...

    So who actually eats bear?

    I The past two spring bears I got were very good. The one that put me off spring bear for a while had a very strong smell and flavor after cooking. In hindsight I think it was due to not removing any fat before cooking.

    Alaska travel mandate

    That looks like a rock as a weight!? Custom made Carolina rig right there. Not sure if you can find the humor in it, but that right there is actually somewhat impressive.

    So who actually eats bear?

    I have eaten a few grizzly bears. The very best have been harvested early season (August) but even mid September is still good. Just not as good as beginning of August. Before I knew better I tried cooking meat from a grizzly bear without trimming the fat. It was a spring bear and that put me...

    Alaska travel mandate

    As an Alaskan that lives off the road system for most of the year I am interested to see what it’s like on the road system this year. No waiting in line to park your car at Russian river?

    Just know that pretty much anywhere you go on the road system will be crowded to some degree. This year may be better than others with probably less out of state travel.

    Cold weather gear on a budget

    Haha I second the hot hands. Salvaged many a winter outing with kids in tow. I like them because it can be hard to find quality COLD weather gear (-10 or colder) for kids. Especially mittens and boots. And then I’d go broke trying to keep up with size changes. So hot hands for the win. My wife...

    Mid and stove as a sauna tent?

    I have tried many times and I think I am starting to get an idea for a tent/tarp sauna. Typically I have not planned ahead for a sauna it just ends up being a spur of the moment sauna with whatever tarp is big enough. Heating rocks in the fire works, but can be difficult to get a good steam...
