    tips for judging yardage in steep terrain?

    tips for judging yardage in steep terrain?

    Going Caveman in the backcountry

    So what are the options for staying on the caveman\Paleo style while on our hunts? To be honest for me I'm not going to worry much about it unless I hear some good simple options. It has to keep us going for 8-10 days! Here is a short list to get going: Breakfast: I hate to even type it but...
