    Idaho Spring Bear

    I certainly wouldn't call you complacent and I consider ammo capacity the weakest of my brainstormed reasons. I also agree that situational awareness is far more valuable than weaponry or skills with it, and I try to be appropriately vigilant at all times when I'm enjoying the backcountry...

    Idaho Spring Bear

    A few reasons I can think of: From a holster I can reliably make 5 hits at 7 yards in 3 seconds in optimal conditions, from my kifaru gun bearer I would be lucky to make one hit in 7 seconds with my rifle no scoping, or one in 9 seconds after flipping scope caps even if I'm hiking with a round...

    Idaho Spring Bear

    This thread is awesome, thanks to all that have posted! I'm planning on hunting and exploring 33-35 at the end of the month and am wondering what people's thoughts are on the likelihood of encountering mountain lions and wolves? I've checked the harvest stats and it appears in 2022 13 wolves...

    What to do/see/eat Sandy-Salt Lake City?

    Haven't lived in SLC for over a decade and my wife and I still talk about Bombay House every few months, sooooo good. We really liked Lone Star for fish tacos/mexican, Squatters makes some fantastic beers, and we frequented Greek Souvlaki for gyros. Buds has quality vegan food if you're so...

    Hot Sauce Recommendation?

    I'm a hot sauce junky and my go to sauce these days is Tia Lupita Habanero, quite mild for a habanero sauce but delicious. https://tialupitafoods.com/collections/sauce/products/habanero-hot-sauce probably available at a local grocer.

    UL 20deg + ~2lb sleeping bags with a $150 budget - is it even possible?

    I realize you already found something, but in case you or someone else is curious I've had good experience with this 800fp Chinese down quilt https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256805256137855.html I ran the 830g fill on a pretty cold late season elk hunt on an Exped R7 pad in a 4 season xmid and...

    FNG from northern Nevada

    Hitting the road on the 24th of this month and have to be home on May 1st. I've been escouting the reduced price areas east of you and am tentatively planning on starting there (units 33-35). Any guesses on elevation bands I should be focusing to start?

    FNG from northern Nevada

    Nice, good to know thank you. I was browsing the snowtel site earlier and I got the impression that it wasn't too deep anywhere but I don't really know how well that data correlates to general field conditions. My hunting window is pretty fixed regardless so I'll just have to play some elevation...
