    Two years ago my buddy and I booked an Alaska goat hunt for 2021. We were looking for an adventure. I had never been to Alaska or a backpack type hunt like this. I was hoping for a trip that would be hard, to be able to do something others can’t or won’t. Unfortunately my buddy hurt his neck...

    KUIU Pro Merino 200 Fit

    I picked up a pair of these and just tried them on. I am 5’6” and just under 150#. The photo is me grabbing the excess on my thigh. The calf area fits perfect. Are they supposed to fit this loose? All my other base layer pants, including the peloton zip offs, are tighter. Is this OK or will I...

    Which tripod and head combo

    I am looking into a tripod and head for my Maven B2 9x45. I have found a couple in my price range. I want to spend under $300 total. Below seem to get good reviews so I am leaning one of these ways. The VA5 Sirui head seems a bit better than the SPCH20 head but the pro master xcm525ck tripod...
