    Quality Lumbar Pack With Decent Suspension / Yoke?

    You might have to do a little rigging to get a quarter onto it, but the Hill People Gear Prairie Belt with their buttpack is a pretty sweet setup and it uses the same belt as their load bearing packs, so loading it up heavy isn’t a problem. You can also set it up with their shoulder harness. If...

    FHF Gear Bottle Holder One Handed Insert

    I’ve scoured the internet for an answer to my question, but haven’t found one. How easy is it to reinsert a bottle one handed into the FHF bottle holders?

    Binocular Tripod Mount Issue

    Hey All! I can’t get the little cap of the front of my Athlon Cronus G2s to unscrew, so I can get a tripod mount in there. Anyone have any tips for getting that darn thing unscrewed? Seems to be wedged in there pretty tight. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Angled vs Straight

    I’m about to make the same decision as you. There is a great deal on the straight version of the spotter I want in the classifieds, but I think I want angled because I want to do a lot of showing my wife and kid whatever I happen to be looking at through the scope when we are camping. Wildlife...

    Active Insulation

    I’ve had the same conclusion. Especially in the winter when the precip is dry, I have been getting very close to leaving the hard shell at home with the wind shirt + vest combo.

    Active Insulation

    No. I think it’s relatively similar to my Gamma SL based on what I’ve read? I’ve been wanting to try something lighter though. More windshirt and less light unlined softshell.

    Active Insulation

    I’ve been using the SG synthetic baselayer. Been wanting to try this system out with a mesh baselayer though. I’ve not used the combo on any hunts, being an east coaster, but I did use the combo on for my annual Presidential Traverse attempt this past winter, where it performed exceptionally...

    Active Insulation

    I’m a big fan of the windshirt + light synthetic vest. Been running an Arcteryx gamma sl combo’d with the SG cirque light vest and it’s done me well into the single digits with 40 mph winds (with a pack)

    Let’s talk Flat Tarps

    I got a custom tarp from simply light designs after struggling to find a tarp with the combination of features I wanted. The owner is great to work with and he will build the tarp to your exact specifications. I’d recommend checking him out! https://simplylightdesigns.com/

    Lightweight Ballhead Option

    Any update on the head? Are you still using it? I am very curious about the inverted ball head concept. Seems like having the pan above the ball would be really nice. Debating between this and the aziak backcountry light.

    SG Grumman Puffy Real World Temps and Layering

    I’ve used my Grumman down set for a couple of mountaineering trips in the White mountains. Kept me warm enough worn over the rest of my kit (base layer, mid layer, windshirt on top and long johns, dehaviland lites on bottom) while setting and breaking camp in 5 degrees with 80+ mph winds. I was...

    Another Bino Harness Comparison Question

    I can’t stand how the RF pouch flops around mounted to my chest rig. Looks the the marsupial RF pouch would have the same issue.

    Another Bino Harness Comparison Question

    From reading around on here and the advertising material, it seems like it’s the same basic concept with the addition of wings and some more padding in the straps.

    Another Bino Harness Comparison Question

    It was in their catalogue this spring. I can send you some pics of the page in the catalogue if you want!

    Another Bino Harness Comparison Question

    I’m in the market for a my first enclosed Bino harness. I currently have the Rick Young Bino harness and an old Gen FHF chest rig. I love using the chest rig as a Bino harness, but I hate that it means disassembling my fishing kit when hunting season comes around and the zipper is damn noisy...

    SO Cimarron hot tent

    I’ll put it on my Christmas list, along with the glass stove door! Even though it might negate the benefits of my U-Turn…

    SO Cimarron hot tent

    Hopefully you find something with enough elasticity to handle wind but less moisture sag than the silnylon! Until then, I’ll be a little less frustrated when I wake up to a saggy tent, knowing it’s the price of better wind performance. Noted on 60 mph. I may try the Cimmaron next year, if the...

    SO Cimarron hot tent

    Ryan, that makes good sense! Thank you for explaining that. Knowing that design tradeoff makes the decision to stick with silnylon make a lot more sense. Out of curiosity, what kinds of winds have you tested the Cimmaron (in different materials and silnylon) out to? Most of my campsites are...
