    Best place to purchase zamberlan boots

    Longtime Zamberlan fan - due to perfect fit. Agree w/GregB, REI good for fittings if you're near one. Still wearing old 996 Viol GTX - I take care of the leather and still preferred for hiking uneven terrain. Also less-old pair 167 Mamba-low with BOA closure - makes 'em handy for slip-on...

    PAC boots?

    Always a good topic! From experience, can share two things: Baffins and also different perspective on keeping warm in winter, which might apply for you. The Baffins were worn by a bowhunter I met while I was small-game hunting with a friend. He was in the last week of his Alaska winter...

    USA Made rifle case

    Ditto on the Nomar's. Not cheap, but the SeaTarp material is tough, no zipper to leak, easy-in/easy-out with scoped long guns and the foam liner and water tight seal... floats. Tough and functional for soft-sided scabbards. https://nomaralaska.com/products/waterproof-rifle-scabbard

    Gas canister safety

    Informative post, thanks... ...and no doubt the basis for some fuel canisters (MSR) that are not approved for shipment by air cargo. Awhile back, I looked into the air cargo issue. Snow Peak and Primus cylinders were approved for shipping by air cargo and no doubt other brands too. Only...

    waterproof kifaru packs?

    Adapt, improvise, overcome: keeping stuff dry... Just dovetailing on what others have suggested: I'm reading from the journals of Lewis & Clark lately. The segment of their (1805) trek along the Washington/Oregon coasts is chock full of rain, rain, rain, wet, wet, wet, cannot get gear dry...

    Hunting with my daughter

    Chad44, Really like the tradition that you've started, carving some special item from your trips. Traditions of most any kind can build strong memories for your kids. One tradition I adopted after watching a RMEF cable show one morning, was the tradition of thanking the game; taking a moment...
