    Cut the cigarette lighter end off and replace with a set of alligator clips and go directly to the pickup battery.

    I personally really like Patagonia and all they stand for.

    Posting unit #'s

    Can anyone actually point to a time a random dude on a forum blew up a unit, or even moved the needle a percent? Did this really happen?

    Colorado Driving through private land

    The safest course of action is to contact the federal agency with the road name and location and get it from the horses mouth. Or, if you are on the Forest, see if there is a published motor use map.

    Because we are the consumer not the seller. Different rules.

    What tags should I be applying for?

    I would pick one state or maybe two and start getting points for elk. Remember that depending on the state you will loose your points if you don't purchase an additional point for a year or two. I feel like sheep is a lost cause. Take the money you would have put to sheep and put it in a an...

    There is a part in Lords of the Fly, that talks about how I don't own a spot, but I do own the time, knowledge, and fuel it took to find. And that is nothing I'm willing to just give away. When someone wants to hack a photo or in some other way poach a spot, I see that as pretty low, but...

    Water filtration in dry sage country

    Filtering suspended benotine would be like trying to filter milk. The selenium is toxic in high levels. There are areas where the selenium content gets high enough to exceed DEQ standards for livestock. If it were me I would filter directly out of the a stocktank before trying a reservoir or...

    Water filtration in dry sage country

    Are they sometime muddy and sometimes clear based on imagery or based on first hand knowledge? We are looking really good moisture wise right now, but there is a lot of summer left over. I would also pay attention to where you are going to be. There are areas I would not try to drink...

    Wyoming corner crossing

    You are right, but did you plan to lay out a property fence not long ago using the GPS in your phone as a compass?

    True North or Magnetic North?

    The USGS has the standard 1:24000 quad maps to download load or order. It is a great resource.

    True North or Magnetic North?

    A humble word of caution. I think it is cool that you have taken the time to understand the theory and application of proportion to find the true line. That is what the "old timers" did and in all fairness they did it pretty dang well. In the case of the general land office and later the BLM...

    True North or Magnetic North?

    As a land surveyor, what you are doing works in theory. I would strongly recommend using an actual magnetic compass and not a phone. In your example declination is irrelevant to the final outcome. I think it's a bold move for half a mile, but I wish you luck.

    Surveyors! What is your daypack?

    The Deakin vests are nice. Mine is 7 years old and still has a year or two before it gets retired.

    Surveyors! What is your daypack?

    I'm an LS in WY and MT. If I was going to be doing some remote work I would/have used my kifaru markhor, but I am pretty careful with things like frost pins and saws. Other than that I am a vest guy.

    Mountainsmith Mountain Shelter LT - install stovejack?

    My stove has enough play in it that I can put thr stove pipe at a pretty good angle from the stove body. I'm not sure if they all work that way. I can push mine forward and to center. This pushes the pipe outside the tent back and out. Just a thought if you don't like where the stove sits now.

    Mountainsmith Mountain Shelter LT - install stovejack?

    I use a 12" Lite Outdoors cylinder stove. I have found it to be a good fit. I really think an 18 would be a bigger hindrance than it's worth.
