    Stihl ms291 acting up

    I would check the impulse line. The carbs on the non pro Stihl's can also be a real pita.

    Trophy Elk: What's it to YOU

    The spike I shot this year was an absolute trophy to me. Dead before he hit the ground. Then I spent the rest of the day, solo packing meat off the hill. There is a boost of confidence and definitely a sense of accomplishment when you set that pack on the tailgate with the last quarter in it...

    Upcoming reloading shortages

    When my Grandpa passed in 2011, I got all of his reloading stuff since I was the only one out of the family that used to go out and reload with him. I haven't used very much of his stuff, but I just pulled a brick of CCI Large Rifle primers out that had an Ace Hardware price tag for $8.99. He...

    Two party system: a necessary evil?

    As the kids get older, they start to migrate more towards wanting to be with their friends at a fun party. On the flip side, the relatives may feel an obligation to attend the birthday party, but would really rather be somewhere else on that Saturday night. Throw the kids, a kid party and plan...

    Missing 80 yo hunter, Warm Lake area in Idaho

    The proverbial needle in the haystack. There is an enormous amount of country in there. It would be hard to search it in the best of conditions. Hopefully he's down on the Southfork and not at the top.

    Missing 80 yo hunter, Warm Lake area in Idaho

    I hope he is found soon. I checked the Landmark/Big Creek Summit SNOTEL site and conditions are less than ideal.

    Wilderness vs front country

    It certainly holds true in most of the Idaho Wilderness areas.

    Utah trying to take control of federal lands

    Idaho originally started out with 3.6m acres of Endowment Land. There is now 2.5m, so some has most definitely been sold off. Agreed, Labrador is trash.

    Walk-in cooler with cool bot materials

    I built one in my shop that is 4x8x8. I framed the walls with 2x4's and used fiberglass insulation in between the studs and a vapor barrier on the inside wall. On both sides of the walls, I used 2" poly styrene panels and covered with 5/16" osb. I used a 12k btu with a Ranco temp controller.

    Your brain on microplastics?

    There is probably enough naturally occurring fluoride in your source water that it provides enough.

    Success!

    I hit the hill yesterday morning. My first spot that I wanted to hunt had a truck parked there,so it was off to plan b.I left the truck at about 0600. Got about half way to where I wanted to go and decided to let it get light before I went any farther. The ground was frozen and noisy, with zero...

    Elk traveling ridges or drainage bottom?

    Lots of different variables. One thing I found, (in Idaho wolf country) they avoid the bottom of deeper draws or canyons. They will cross through them if necessary but it seems they prefer being up above the bottom and run side hill towards saddles.
