    Convince me Crispi makes a top quality boot ...

    I’ve hiked in many brands over the past 25+ seasons, including Lowa, Asolo, and Scarpa. My Crispi Colorados fit well and are on their fourth year. I’ve chased bighorns and aoudad, deer and elk in them in a variety of terrain and never been disappointed.

    New Mexico 2023 Draw Thread

    All red for this resident, even with what should have been a 100% draw for archery elk. Still a good fall to come as my wife has a muzzy bull, my daughter a rifle bull, and my son has Stallion broken horn and javelina.

    Which Toyota 4Runner?

    I have a 2016 4runner SR5 Premium and have taken it all over CO and NM off-road and never felt the need for more. Good tires and it will go anywhere I want as a stock vehicle.

    Laptop Backpack

    I used Swiss Gear for all of my international business travel over the years. The backpacks have held up well; never had issues with zippers and my laptop has always been safe. Big enough to pack everything for a quick overnight for traveling light.

    New Mexico 2023 Draw Thread

    Even with a point system, you may never draw your desired tag in NM. As with many states and species, demand far outpaces the available resource, even for residents.

    Traveling Job with Kids

    In my experience, the estimated travel time is lower than actual. I spent a couple of years traveling overseas for 2-3 weeks at a time while my kids were toddlers. I missed out on alot. Two events back to back made me reconsider. Another engineer in our office passed unexpectedly. His two boys...

    Firearm Safety Certificate?

    CPW will ask for it if you are checked and it is not verified in their system. A buddy hunted with us a couple of years ago, got checked, did not have it on him, and lost a full day getting it sorted out at the regional office in Durango.

    Quilt vs Bag

    I like my El Coyote 40 quilt in the summer and into the early fall, but when the temps start dropping, my WM Badger gets the nod.

No issues with a 2016 4Runner (125k), but my 2020 Ram (105k) has had two manifolds under warranty...

    Which bag is roomier, WM Badger or SG Chilkoot

    I can’t speak to the SG, but my badger is quite roomy for this side sleeper. I greatly prefer it to the slick bag I had before.

    Camping with a baby - advice?

    Don’t overthink it. ours have been going since they were tiny; it’s just prt of our lifestyle and we didn’t put it on hold with kids. They are 14 and 12 now and are quite at home in a tent. Pack and play was a good option, but moved them right into toddler sized Big Agnes bags as they got a...
