    Tarptent Aeon Li or Argali Owyhee

    Which are you guys choosing for August/Sept hunts, or has anyone tried both? I've been running a Mountain Star for a while now and trying to lighten up my early season setup. Application is for cramming everything back into my bag each morning. If im spiking out, I'll most likely still bring...

    Favorite smoked salmon recipe.

    What's everyone's favorite smoked salmon recipe? I'm spending this weekend smoking up last year's coho and kings, and cycling in the new stuff. Thicker pieces still in the smoker, but pulled these smaller ones. One nice thing about living in Washington is the endless supply of salmon that...

    Lets talk power banks for different types of trips.

    Curious what everyone else is running depending on the type of hunt they are. Currently I'm in the works on a DIY moose hunt in Alaska. Either 2024 or 2025, and plan to make this a every 2-3 year if possible. This hunt could go for 12-20 days depending on the unit we choose. My plan here would...

    Wyoming feed stations are a breeding ground for Disease/CWD. Thoughts?

    https://wyofile.com/fewer-elk-sicker-elk-thats-what-the-experts-expect-if-wyoming-keeps-on-feeding/ Thoughts on this article? Makes sense, but I didn't know cwd was a big threat for elk in Wyoming currently. Seemed like those feed stations were crucial in some areas this year that had bad...

    TAC @ Big Sky 2024 over fathers day.

    Who's going this year? This would be my third round at TAC and always have a blast there. Made it through 75 targets last year while only losing one arrow. His name was Henry and he had a bent insert, one ripped fletch, all color and graphics rubbed off the wrap, and about 7 grains missing from...

    Chasing that WA 20+lber (dub-club) Steelhead

    Who here has got a true 20lb or bigger steelhead. The 40"×20"+ or my personal favorite the football shaped ones 38"×22"+. Lived in WA since 2015, and while I have hooked a few, and watched them head back to the salt laughing the entire way that 20 still alludes me. Despite multiple friends...

    Oregon said yes to giving wolves to Colorado.

    Not sure if it's been covered or not, but looks like Oregon agreed to give you Colorado boys some fury K9 friends. Wish they would have just followed ID, MT, and WY stance on the hole thing and said no...

    Anyone else rolling solo for Manti archery?

    Just seeing if any other guys around have the same tag and are going at it alone as well. I'll have a few buddies in and out, but for the most part will be up there solo. Possibly camp near one another and share Information and strong backs if either gets lucky. Gonna be camping somewhere of...

    Utah Manti Archery Elk, I got lucky....

    Somehow I managed to draw this tag my first time applying with 4 points. Bought points the first three years. To be honest I was shocked and will probably be returning my MT General tag as a result. I've only had the tag a handful of days and my biggest issue so far in scouting is finding areas...

    Kill kit weights and ideas. Lets see yours? Ideas?

    Just seeing what all you other Roksliders are coming in at for weight, or have in your kit. This one is for elk, but not much changes between species. Smaller Havalon looses sleeve and goes in my pocket during season. I add extra blades for both into the larger case. Roughly 2lbs 13oz. I used...

    MSR Trailshot for overnighters.

    Just curious who has used the MSR Trailshot for filtering water and their experience. Obviously it will be more difficult then my hiker pro I use now, but curious about your experience. I'm the guy that goes through 3-4 liters a day easily as well. Just trying to save a little weight and space...

    SO 6 man tipi with two LBO nests?

    Has anyone ran two of the LBO nest inside the 6 man tipi and if so how did you like it? Much room available after? I definitely want to run a stove as well with the two LBO's. Previously SO made a nest for the 6, but no longer do. Originally I wanted the redcliff, but it seems to cozy for two...

    Idaho weiser River zone or elk city?

    To start off I've hunted the panhandle for many years and looking to try a new area. Was going to buy a salmon or sawtooth tag, but both those are sold out now. Looked into middle fork and selway, but not wanting to hire a packer and flying in just puts you with the crowds. So, I have been...
