    Outdoorsy Career Path for Civil/Structural Engineer

    Mining pays pretty decent for civils. There are companies out there that let you live in very hunting friendly states. Though, a lot of mines are very remote and/or require you to live in a company town. Industry is weird, if you make it past a couple years you're usually a lifer.

    6.5 PRC and 7mm PRC

    Its not just 0.5 mm, the 7 PRC case also holds more go go juice. Choose whichever one you want, both will kill anything you hit properly with good bullets. I have a 6.5 SAUM in progress, which has a little more gas than a 6.5 PRC and just to be a little different.

    Newberg says a $40 elk tag (or whatever it cost) is a $25,000 elk tag for residents.

    PSA - Don't be a jackass out there

    Pushing a rock down a mountain or cliff is not "harmless". That's quite the mentality to have. You don't know the conditions below. People are all over the place these days, act like it. Especially when they saw the person in the canoe and kept on with their act. Your position assumes these...

    6.5 WEATHERBY RPM

    What 30 cal bullets are you shooting? Most of the common 6.5 offerings have outrageous BCs (aka wind bucking). I would expect a 6.5 shooter to run 142 ABLR, 143 ELDX, 147 ELDM, 156 EOL. If you are not a reloader and shooting common factory ammo I could see your point (accubond, lrx, partition?)...

    You like your truck camper shell for Hunting?

    How does it hold up in the elements? How many years do you expect it to last? I live at 8k with no garage and the sun gets pretty intense (UV). My other truck had a shell and it was a pain to haul firewood (5+ cords in the bed min a year). I currently don't have a shell and firewood hauling is...

    How does one become a poacher?

    The difference? One paid the government and got a tag, the other didn't. And/or follows the rules or doesn't. Is one more morally or ethically correct? I argue it depends. Devil's Advocate...There are people out there hunting to just put meat on the table for their family. You won't hear...

    Trespassing? Worth shooting a snowboarder?

    What is this? Nannyslide? Dudes on his property confronting trespassers. Apparently this spot was posted online and a bunch of snowboarders bombarded his snowcat driveway. They cut the boundary ropes from the resort to get here.

    Crazy Used ATV Prices-Is This Regional or Everywhere?

    Do FB marketplace listings move at those high prices? I can't say they do around here and they stay up for months. Not sure what the end goal for the sellers is.

    Crazy Used ATV Prices-Is This Regional or Everywhere?

    I've been casually looking for 2+ years for a used ATV or SxS. ATV seem to be more ridiculous. 5k+ for a 10 year old machine that's been stored outside? Used price more than what the MSRP was?

    Phone for backcountry use

    I'm in the market for a new phone and wondering what everyone is running. Been using Motorolas for the past few years with success. I am an Android guy, but would be willing to try the Iphone. Asking this here because a lot of us use our phones to run map software (onX, GoHunt, etc) while miles...
