    Camp Location

    I’ve got a pretty good habit of marking bivy setup locations whenever I find them. Figure a 2-500’ climb to a glassing position first thing in the morning isn’t too bad of a thing.

    Camp Location

    Makes sense. Seems like thermals go down hill each night? I guess this may vary from spot to spot, season by season, but generally speaking, down at night, up in the morning?

    Camp Location

    A little context: Hunting Mountain/Alpine Blacktail and Black Bear in Western Washington Coming from a backpacking background, I enjoyed nothing more than camping right near a water source or ridgeline. As I’ve transitioned further into hunting, I’ve gotta ask. Am I correct in assuming I should...

    First time trail cam setup

    Thanks for the input everyone. Will be going up next weekend for a couple nights and checking SD cards while I’m up there. Will post pics if I’ve captured anything worthwhile.

    First time trail cam setup

    Those look pretty nifty. Gonna have to give em a try. Looks like they’ll work just fine with a security cable too.

    First time trail cam setup

    Awesome tip regarding angling the cam downward with a stick. Luckily, my cams have a screen so I should be able to verify the frame before leaving it for several months. I can imagine it’ll become addicting. Probably feels like Christmas morning every time you make the trek to check it out...

    First time trail cam setup

    Just purchased a couple Browning trail cams, non-cell service as the area they’ll be set in won’t have coverage. I’ll be targeting mountain Blacktail in Washington state. Elevations greater than 3500 or so. Was wondering if anyone could provide some tips for setting them up in the thick...

    Mid Layer Sleeves

    Not sure how many others are bothered by this specific issue so I figured I’d start a thread for some input. My issue is sleeve tightness in the forearms on my Kuiu Peloton 240. I know this has been brought up before, but has anyone had luck with a different mid layer in terms of layering...

    Lightweight Softshell / Brush Buster

    Looks like we’re probably running in similar country. A lot of busting brush from January through March, and even then, I’m burning up. Stationary fishing isn’t my thing when I’m not floating, so I’m always pretty warm bouncing from spot to spot.

    Lightweight Softshell / Brush Buster

    First Lite Corrugate looks like a solid option. Most of my layering is Kuiu, but I’ve been purchasing some solids recently for scenarios like this. Not a fan of mixing camo patterns but I’ll do it all day with solids.

    Lightweight Softshell / Brush Buster

    Maybe I’m overthinking it and a regular thin but durable rain jacket will work? Specifically with pit zips.

    Lightweight Softshell / Brush Buster

    Looking for recommendations on a soft/hard shell that is durable enough to bust wet or damp brush in Western Washington hunting and fishing, but also not as heavyweight as a jacket like Kuiu’s Guide DCS. I typically warm up very fast while moving, even in temps between 15-35 degrees, so it’d be...

    Kuiu Moving on from Yukon Raingear?

    Oh I see. Was laughing when they announced the new Ultra Down line. I had finally purchased the previous model a month before they were discontinued. Good little jacket, will be nice for PNW alpine glassing in august/September.

    Kuiu Moving on from Yukon Raingear?

    Gotcha, must have missed it. Guessing it was on their social media?

    Kuiu Moving on from Yukon Raingear?

    Noticed that Kuiu has moved their heaviest-duty raingear (Yukon) to the outlet section. Now they’ve only got Northridge, Chugach (currently owned), and Kutana lines of raingear. Anyone know if they’re planning on releasing a new line for above Kutana?
