    Rifle Carry on Kuiu Packs??

    I've got the FHF sling and am really pleased with it. It took a decent amount of playing around with it to find the right fit, attachment points, etc. but after that I haven't had any issues. Overall it's pretty stable, I don't feel like I need to have my hand on the sling when I'm hiking. The...

    I've been eyeing that Spartan adapter but hadn't been able to find many examples of people using it in the field, thanks for posting this!

    Rookie floorless shelter question

    Yeah a lot of times I'll just backpack with a tarp, but looking for something that would be able to hold up in the wind a bit better. Probably a very accurate point that if I try to land on just one shelter for all the applications I'll be disappointed though. Appreciate the input!

    Rookie floorless shelter question

    Really helpful to see a layout like this. Might need to take a closer look at the Cimmaron...and here I thought I had my whole shelter decision made up 😂

    Rookie floorless shelter question

    That makes sense. I would've guessed the stove helps somewhat in these circumstances but if the whole interior ground is still covered in snow it can't solve the whole issue. Thanks for the call out!

    Rookie floorless shelter question

    Good to know, couldn't picture if a stove would completely dry it out or not since I don't have any experience with them. Thanks! Do you feel like the Cimmaron Lite would be overkill for 1? That'll probably be my main use is backpacking solo in the summer, but it would be nice if I could find...

    Rookie floorless shelter question

    I've been doing quite a bit of research on floorless shelters and am pretty sold. Eyeing the Seek Outside Guardian, which combined with a stove is still lighter than my current 4 season backpacking tent. Great weight savings, optional to do a hot tent, big enough to run it with 2 guys if you're...

    Favorite Backcountry Gear 2022

    Little late to the game here, but what stood out for me last year: FL Uncompahgre Puffy Pant - such a game changer for late season glassing! Nemo Tensor Insulated Wide - I've had a z-lite folding pad for the past ~8 years and finally upgraded to this, super happy with it. Packs up incredibly...

    Programs like MTN tough vs hiking with heavy packs

    +1 to MTNTOUGH being legit, I've done several of their programs throughout the past couple of years and haven't found anything as comprehensive and effective, especially for no gear/low gear workouts. Lot's of emphasis on rucking and functional movements, can't recommend them enough.

    Rut Report, CO 3rd Season

    Was just in 28 for several days and nothing happening where I was at. All the does and bucks I saw were separate, only rutty activity I saw was one buck chasing a couple does on some private driving home

    Colorado "Newbie"

    Thanks for the tip! Got a tripod recently and was scouting last weekend - spotted way more animals with the stability than I ever did previously so ready to settle in and glass all day.

    Colorado "Newbie"

    Hey y'all, new to Rokslide and a "newbie" hunter from Colorado. I grew up elk hunting with my father in CO but we never had success (never did much aside from going out for a weekend and hoping we saw something, so the lack of success is not surprising). Have gotten back into hunting the last...

    Mule deer bedding

    Second this. I've banked on animals being where they've bedded first thing a couple of times only for them to have rolled out before I could get within range

    Stone Glacier De Havilland Pant Review

    Thanks for dropping this review! I've been eyeing these for a pair of pants that has knee pads/is compatible with knee pads. Any experience with those? Also been looking at the FL Corrugate Foundry for the same reason...
