Dang I am on it ! I gotta wait until I get back from Colorado though, it looks like once they qualify you you get 7 days to join, I'll be gone 20 but when I get home i'm on it !
Also look for hair, hair doesn't last long, birds use it, squirrels use it unless it gets trapped in barbed wire or under bark or something it isn't around long.
That rub to the right is the freshest, look how bright the wood is, also look for definition in tracks, fresh broken earth. Earth dries out, oxidizes over time. Tracks get old and cave in, or get weathered and degrade. You'll know it when you see it, when you can smell it you know you are really...
I would let her decide, whichever one she has the most confidence in, and after 28 years of marriage if she misses, well who's decision was it to bring THAT rifle ? :cool:
This is the same set up I am running, only difference is I ditched the Sawyer bag and am using a Smart water bottle, after filling the bladder you can just leave the squeeze on top to drink from giving you an extra 32 oz if you need to carry a little extra. The stiffer bottle is also easier to...
3 days and a wake up, gear is loaded, pack is loaded, coolers are clean it's all stacked up in the garage except my bow which I am still shooting every day, then it's 15 hours solo to Wisconsin and another 18 or so with my buddy hope to be hunting on the 1st and get in at least 14 days unless we...
Glad I read this, had no idea they overlapped the seasons like that and it'll be my first time out there so I would have been a little confused as to why the orange and rifle. I run into guys hunting rabbits with dogs all the time while I am bowhunting deer. You're not gonna be causing that kind...
I'm 6'5", it was tight but I could put a pack and a bow/rifle on the other side. I got the tub floor/ bugnest with it. I'm a side sleeper so I had room but I wouldn't want to be stuck in it for a few days. I used the tub floor but not the nest, no bugs that trip. I'm going to keep it as the base...
So I weighed it up last night, according to my bathroom scale with me on it and then with me and the pack I am at 39 pounds. Without food at 1.5 pounds per day and without water ( 3l platy to fill)

I had a side stalker years ago, cool looking but hangs up on things or you are constantly pushing it, tucking it or pulling it around. Had a CAT quiver, that was nice but it was part of a pack system that sucked. Put a Selway on my long bow and have a Great Northern on my Titan III now, won't...
I would have to retire and move there so I didn't need a guide ! lol... does Alaska still give you 5k per person just for living there or is that urban myth ?
