    Kuiu questions

    I bought the Peloton 240 full zip in Ash for hunting and I pretty much wear it every day its so comfortable. The KUIU flexible fabric really adds a lot of mobility. I wish the hood was a little bigger though because the whole sweatshirt rides up a little when I have the hood on.

    First Lite AeroWool 150 long Boxer vs Boot cut

    I am looking to get a new pair of merino base layers for hiking/hunting. My old Icebreaker boxer briefs bunched up too much which got pretty old after 5 days in the elk woods. I have heard good things about the First Lite Merino and am looking at the longer 10'' Boxer Brief or the longer boot...

    Bino Harness

    What did you hate about the KUIU holster? The FHF looks like a good setup but the price is almost twice as KUIU. FHF is made in USA though which I do like.

    Bino Harness

    Every phone has a GPS now but I am still raising my 2 daughters to know how to triangulate with a map and compass. I am actually setting up a treasure hunt in the next few weeks that is just going to be a list of coordinates etc for them to find. OnX is great until your phone breaks or your...

    Synthetic Puffy Jacket Options

    I got an Amazon Basics synthetic puffy jacket and used it for elk hunting last fall. I was actually really surprised how warm it was and how it held up. They run about $30 too so it hits pretty well above its weight class...

    GMU 80,81 Colorado Elk Archery 2022

    Just a heads up for those going down there. There are 0 gas stations between Salida and Saguache so fill up there. I learned that the hard way last weekend thinking Villa Grove had gas and they dont.

    Best day pack???

    That actually looks like a legit pack. The Venture cant really haul any meat and when I called KUIU they said about 35 lbs is the max for their Venture packs. I might get one of those for the fall actually, have you been happy with yours?

    Throwing money away at non-resident draws

    Once I stumbled in there after work when I lived in Utah. I thought it was just some outdoor expo that was open to the public and nobody asked for a pass at the door. Anyway someone finally comes up and asks for my pass and I got grilled about trespassing and escorted to the door by security...

    Tired of former pro athletes turned hunting celebs?

    I see what you are saying but you gotta cough up that alimony check one way or another.

    Tired of former pro athletes turned hunting celebs?

    I dont blame them really. You come out of a sport and you are in top physical shape and you want to be able to continue an active lifestyle and get outside. There seems to be a decent overlap between sports medicine and hunt training as well.

    Colorado unit 500 and atv

    OnX with the Road/Access type overlay shows roads with Highway vehicles or hiking trails only so the ATV really would not give you an advantage. There are other units however that would benefit greatly from an ATV as Colorado can be strict between ATV and SxS access.

    “Back country” question

    We dealt with that water issue a lot. Last fall 80% of the supposed water sources were dry in the first area we were camped at. Another factor is the micro-climates of mountains in CO. You can be in an area that is bone dry then go 10 miles over into a gully and it will be like a swamp in there...
