    26" bikini frame, normal back, small belt, black

    I have for sale a kifaru 26" bikini frame. The stays are "normal" profile. It's black with a small belt. The frame is in good condition. The only issue is on the torso pad. There is a small section of the tacky, contact patch that has come out from under the stitching. Doesn't affect...

    Yaktrax alternative?

    So now that I've shredded two pairs of yaktrax (the last pair didn't even make two trips) I'm ready to move on. What are you guys using for extra traction in icy conditions?

    Elk and Deer Rifle for the Wife

    I'm looking to buy my wife her first hunting rifle. Its got to be capable of taking deer and elk. Backpacking and long hikes are very probable. My wife is not what I would call recoil sensitive. Any suggestions for a rifle/cartridge combo would be appreciated. Thanks

    Stone glacier frame height.

    Does anyone know how tall the Stone Glacier Krux frame is (ex. 24", 26", etc.)? I'm just curious because I'm thinking about giving one a try and a 24" frame is about perfect for me. Anything above that is just wasted space/lift.

    Douvids, 8/12 or 10/15

    I'm looking at getting a set of tripod mounted binoculars as I just recently moved to Wyoming and the terrain is way more open than my usual hunting spots. I'd like a set of 15's but I think that's too magnification for a stalk or even some of the more dense places I hunt. I also don't want to...

    Living in Rock Springs/Green River Wyo

    Hey guys I'm looking at a job in Rock Springs, Wyo and was wondering if some of the Wyoming rokslide members could give me some insight on what the town is like.

    Duplex frame vs. Hunting Platform

    With the current sale going on I was considering picking up a duplex frame, I was just wondering if there was any difference in carrying comfort between the two frames? Also I noticed that the new frame is about 9-10 oz lighter but I know you can trim some stuff off of the duplex to shed some...

    Supplementing in the woods?

    For those of you that supplement on a regular basis (protein, creatine, multi vitamins, etc.) do you continue it while in the woods? If so, why and what do you keep up with? If not, why not?

    Titanium bolts to shed weight.

    Firenock has a new titanium bolt kit for a lot of different bows. It looks like you can shed 2-4 ounces off of your bow, plus titanium is stronger and doesn't rust. You might even gain a little speed with the lighter mods screws.

    Back pouch vs. E&E

    I was thinking about running an E&E instead of a back pouch with the nomad I have on order. I just wanted to know if the E&E comes with enough strap to run over a full meat baggie and still attach to the nomad. If anybody has some experience with this, let me know. Thanks

    Thinking about a pack?....Get to sheep show.

    If any of you fellow roksliders are considering a new pack and don't know which brand you want, model you want, etc. I would highly suggest getting to the sheep show in Reno. I was able to try out the packs from kifaru, stone glacier, mystery ranch and kuiu. They all had weight available so you...

    kifaru shoulder straps

    I have a dt3 I'm trying to dial in the fit on and was wondering if kifaru has different size shoulder straps. I'm wondering because I have sucked the straps in as far as they will go and it seems like they need to go further in. I bought the pack used from a guy much taller than me and I have a...
