    That'll be my next purchase.

    What should I be doing different?

    Seeing some. Lots of turds and tracks. Hard to tell how fresh it is. Doesn't look that old to me, but I'm nowhere near an expert on scat.

    Is my sleep system adequate?

    Still here. I wussed out and rented a room in Dolores, LOL. Not because I was cold, but because my back was absolutely killing me on my xtherm. I was borderline comfortable for 2 nights when it came temperature, but my back pain did me in. I got a whopping 1hr of sleep for two nights before I...

    What should I be doing different?

    In Colorado GMU 71 (near Dolores) on my first elk hunt (2nd rifle). I've been glassing mornings and evenings, and still hunting during mid day. 4 days in and I haven't seen one single animal. Not one. Is this a common thing? Obviously hunting is not a guarantee, but I would think I would...

    Is my sleep system adequate?

    Completely forgot about my Woobie. It'll be going along too.

    Is my sleep system adequate?

    Heading to SW Colorado in a couple days for 2nd rifle. First time ever hunting there. Just curious if RS thinks my sleep system is adequate for the temps, keeping in mind that I (think I) tend to sleep warm. Have been tracking temps for surrounding towns and seems to be anywhere from 20-mid...

    I need a new stove. Which one?

    Curious, but why won't the sol melt snow?

    Looking into new truck

    I soooo want to love these things. Those TRD Pros in the Cement color are gorgeous. However, I can't stand that Toyota hasn't done anything with the interior since they came out 10+ years ago. They still want to charge nearly $50k for them, but they don't have shit for tech amenities in...

    Wind River

    So did the same thing happen to his daughter by the same guys? I think that's what they were alluding to but I didn't catch it for certain. Awesome movie though. I love somber, laidback movies like that. Btw, filmed in Utah. Lol.

    Antler size thread

    Being new to elk hunting, I'm still learning how to judge antler size on the hoof. Can we get this thread going with pics of your bulls with what they scored? Anything from spikes to 400"+ would be helpful. Let's get her going. I'll contribute my pic when I get back from CO early November...

    Truck bed camper setups

    Anyone do this for traveling purposes? Since I live in central Ohio and have started taking on this western hunting thing, I've come to appreciate just how long a 20-32hr drive can be. Renting a hotel for a whole night is a waste of money when all I'd really like is a 3-4hr nap so I can get...

    Vegas Shooting- truly sick

    Werd. The guy had the makings of an ANFO bomb in his vehicle. Oklahoma will tell you about those if you ask them. Please explain to those families how much safer their loved ones would have been with more gun control in place.

    Vegas Shooting- truly sick

    I totally agree. They keep pushing for 'Universal Background Checks' like it's some simple thing. HOW COULD WE POSSIBLY BE AGAINST IT?!?!?!??! Well...in order to do it effectively, you'd have to create a registry. How convenient is that for them? GTFO of here with that crap.

    Vegas Shooting- truly sick

    The problem becomes, where do you stop? The Left would like to to believe that the next piece of legislation would be the last, but that simply isn't the case. Gun rights have slowly been whittled away for the past 80+ years. So say we ban these stocks (which for the record, I think are...

    Vegas Shooting- truly sick

    That was my point about banning social media. It's just as much of a dumb idea as banning/regulating guns. It simply wouldn't work and infringes on a right just the same. But The Left would go nuts if you even hinted at it. Along the same lines as guns; "I dont own guns so regulating them...

    Vegas Shooting- truly sick

    Am I the only one who thinks this selfie-taking, look-at-me, attention whore society we've created has a large part to do with these shootings these days? The rise in social media seems to have correlated (maybe causation) with the rise in shootings. This guy clearly didn't have enough talent...

    Best pack saw

    I just purchased a Boreal 21 from Agawa Canyon. I understand it to be a Dustrude knockoff, but I liked the design and blade selection better. We will see when it gets here.

    Vegas Shooting- truly sick

    It's a crank-fired device, for sure. The cyclic rate changes substantially during its use, i.e, he's cranking faster/slower.

    Borah Bivy instead of Tyvek ground cloth?

    Be honest. Are you peeing the bed?
