    WANTED: Your Top 5 Base Camp Tips or Hacks

    Out of all of our trips we only stopped once over night the rest we drove straight through. I have buddies from PA that do both. We do arrive early a day or two early if it’s a shorter hunt so like a NM hunt where the season is 10 days or in the beginning we did some 7 day drop camps. This...

    As a member of a group of 4 doing this for about 14 years now and also coming from PA I think I learned a little about group trips. Make sure you have a group leader who can make lists to make sure everything is brought that is NEEDED and not duplicates. An example every guy in the party...

    Instant creamer that doesnt taste like a$$?

    This is what I drank on our hunt. They have a few flavors. My wife and daughter drink it iced. Would have never tried it but found it for a $1 a bag. At .16 a cup it was delicious although sweet. Would take again.

    Best budget coolers

    I prefer a cheap 150 like a Coleman because it can hold an entire bull. The Yeti are so heavy and big at that size they become a pain to move around. Two smaller Yeti than not as economical when buying dry ice to bring a bull home 32 hours. The other issue I have is leaving a $350 cooler at camp...

    Sold Leupold Freedom 3-9x40

    Leupold Freedom 3-9x40 took off your .243. Glass is good. Some marks from mounts not scratched almost looks like residue from loctite maybe got carried away on base screws because it’s only on the bottom of tube. Think acetone should clean it up. Sure they will get covered up when mounted...

    Early morning wake-up’s

    I only mind the early morning wake ups when its cold. Being from the east coast and getting up here at 5am makes getting up in the mountains not really an issue with the time difference. Of course I am usually the first one to bed in our camp often as soon as the stove is turned off and my...

    Kuiu women’s packs over 50% off in outlet

    I picked 1 up for my daughter and it arrived yesterday. She is 5'8 so I adjusted it to max torso length to start. I put it on me and I am 6'0 and it felt just long enough although I didn't hike around with it. I got the 3600 bag and really like the lay out. Will be a great pack for her.
