    Help with Packing Out Meat - What is Fair?

    I would ask the "helper" what he would like and thinks is fair. Then I would give him a little more... A quarter and a backstop seems very fair... to both parties... If I understand the situation correctly. However, after calling the packer for help and accepting said help without an agreed upon...

    Where are my elk?

    If you are not hearing bulls I would get the map out and plan a move. Don't wait for a chance something shows up!

    Switching to 8x32 Binoculars

    I went through this whole deal over the last year- 15x56 SLC, 8x32 CL, 10x42 EL ranges, ATX and BTX eye pieces... Settled on the 10x42 El ranges as it eliminates the need for a rangefinder and the BTX eliminates the need for the 15x56's. Sold the 15x56 (stunning on a tripod) and 8x32 (great...

    Kifaru Fulcrum vs Nomad 2

    Nomad, guide lid, camp bag, grab it is an awesome system. I can't imagine a different system for me. The thing I really like is having a day pack (nomad) for quick trips from the house and then grabbing/adding the camp bag and taking off for a week. I am familiar with the layout and where...

    Fresh Tracks now on Amazon Prime

    Congratulations- keep up the great work! While I don't see any chance that cable/satellite tv go away- I do see Youtube/Amazon etc... being a much smarter sales channel for you and your sponsors...

    What pack do I want for what I'm trying to do?

    Figure out what you are taking on your day trips and then look at bags- early or late season, glass, tripod, water, filter, clothing layers... everyone travels different and weather and water availability factor in...

    unable to find a good flat for camping, any unique ideas/experiences?

    I think you are more than fine- especially with a tent floor that goes up a few inches. Not sure I see any benefit to a hammock in that situation other than comfort. But it comes at a weight penalty so you have to balance the two out... If I was real concerned about weather I would add a large...

    Tent camping in the back country

    Urine, while not 100% sterile- is certainly cleaner than the water you are about to filter... I am not saying pee in a creek... As for animals visiting at night- I hope they don't wake me... Last thing on my mind...

    I have an 11x33x50 with neoprene in perfect condition. I would be open to a trade. What do you have in mind?

    Vortex Viper 65mm or Razor 50mm

    Own the 50 and IMO it's nothing to write home about... Gave it to my 13 year old along with the 10x42 Vortex binos (which are decent) I have. I have not used the Vortex 65 but it couldn't possibly be worse than the 50.

    Jetboil fuel -- how much to take?

    Two smalls. One in the pot and one stuffed in the pack somewhere- I drink a lot of coffee when I am camping and I could live on cold MH but not without my coffee. :)

    Pack size help please

    Nomad does not get loose or floppy when compressed down. I fold the wings in over my rifle (if a rifle hunt), cinch everything up, drop the guide lid down over the top (cinch the bow to the outside- if a bow hunt) and off I go. At home where I can day hunt from the house I even use the nomad. I...

    unable to find a good flat for camping, any unique ideas/experiences?

    I have a couple Clark hammocks which are great for Fall weather. I like the Hammock Gear quilts and use their winter palace tarp a fair bit.

    Well the Sawtooth shipped one month and a day later. Looking forward to setting this thing up and breaking in the new LO stove.

    Day Pack?

    Do you have a frame you can attach a new smaller pack to? One of the reasons I purchased a Kifaru was the versatility to run many different packs.
