    Good news for Ebiker users on public land.

    This is consistent with what the studies were showing, each time a hiker or biker came by it caused the animals to move. Bikers making animals move a longer distance AND animals further from the trail moving. Doesn’t seem like a big deal but as more people were going by the animals used more...

    what spotting scope glass would you need to compliment swaro 10x42

    I would just caution that if you are a swaro guy and think you may elevate to that level eventually on your spotter don't waste your money on a lower level one. You'll just end up selling it later and losing money. Or at least buy used so you don't take as much as a hit if you sell.

    Good news for Ebiker users on public land.

    Backcountry Sleeping Bags

    Western Mountaineering 15 and 5. I sleep a heck of a lot better when I have a sleeping bag rated at least 15 degrees lower than the actual temps. It's the difference between waking up every 30minutes to readjust vs just cozy as hell and sleeping like a rock.

    Best non custom mountain rifle

    Ive actually been contemplating a switch on my lightweight rifle. I currently run a Christensen Arms MPR that shoots lights out and is light with a folding stock. I want to run a suppressor though which would make it unwieldy. However, Christensen just came out with the MPR pistol and it comes...

    New guy ID

    I've been a long time lurker (years) and have a few friends who have been members for a while so I figured i'd finally join and hopefully contribute some limited knowledge. I'm most interested in elk hunting but I do a little bit of everything. If anyone is from northern Idaho give me a shout.
