58 bucks!! Holy Jose!!
I always see these 40below ones at a climbing shop in town. I have an old OR one I use. If it ever falls apart or disappears I’ll probably grab one of these.

I was driving up the haul road this spring and the only station that came in was some Christian garbage. Some old fart complaining about how Christian music these days is too edgy for him. Pretty hilarious to listen to actually.
Meh. People are scared of what they don’t know. Just like a lot of guys here would shit a brick if they had to go spend a week on the south side of Chicago. Meanwhile little kids and old lady’s just live there comfortable as can be.
I’ve read a lot of articles on this case and none of them mention dogs actually being deployed. Just one mention of his wife asking for someone with dogs to help in the search.
A guy in anchorage disappeared a few years ago and they found his body this spring in anchorage. In the most...

These are pretty hard to beat for the price. I got some a few weeks ago for 20 bucks. They seem to get listed in waves. I have a pair of the alti mitts and these are almost identical. The leather in the palms is a single layer vs doubled up in a few...
I guess that’s what I’m getting at. Winter and wolves have been around forever. Dudes flying in from Texas to shoot something and fly home with just the head is a relatively new phenomenon.
For what it’s worth most guys up here use Helly Hansen or grundens from my observations. I don’t work in the rain anymore (what we don’t can’t be done in the rain) but when I did I used Helly Hansen imperfect bibs and a grundens neptune jacket.
One thing I’d be interested in seeing is a comparison between the population numbers inside the parks vs outside. Is wrangell and Denali seeing the same declines? I’ve looked but can’t find anything.
This happened a few years ago on the Kenai. Just some lady hiking through some tall grass and stabbed through her knee if I remember right. The guy who lost the arrow came forward. After the story was in the paper. Shits happens but man that’s gotta be a shitty feeling knowing it was your...
Rumor on the streets is it gets shipped with a copper river fleece and some xtratuffs. Just needs a DUI and some domestic violence charges and that’s as Alaskan as it gets
This. It’s funny what people latch onto. My point was he either walked a long way in the wrong direction so the search team is looking where he ain’t. The guy being 61 5’7” and 200 pounds make that seem pretty unlikely. Or he slipped and banged his head and drowned or something.. That’s a hard...
Man. Some of you dudes watch too much tv. If I had to take a wild ass guess I’d say he either walked 200 miles in the wrong direction(not real likely in my opinion) or he slipped on a rock and smacked his head or something. Probably laying dead in a creek tucked under some willows.
The whisperlite is a pretty standard stove for a lot of high altitude mountaineering. So it works good in low temps. Liquid fuel works better than iso fuel canisters in the cold and higher altitudes in my experience. I’ve got a dragonfly and am happy with it. Pretty much a whisperlite with more...
This was a few years ago and nobody ever called. It had like 4 different beverages. A few local beers and some cider shit and a truly or something. It was a tasty sandwich. Wish I could of given my compliments to the chef.
I would of just kept your cooler than. Hahaha
The creek I found it on runs through town next to a pretty popular trail/bike path. I went out and put up signs all along the trail saying “found cooler tell me what kind and what was in it you can have it back” or something of that nature. I never drank the beers because they were shitty...
