    Youtubers ruin public hunting. Change my mind.

    I love the pics in the high country of the sky line. I was trained to navigate when it was darker than 2' up a bull's ass with map and compass! I found this one guys hidey hole by perusing wilderness topos . I messaged him back and informed him his secret is safe from me! He was gracious...

    a question for the Builders on here.

    Mono slab and 2 by 6 with a trussed roof! That is all I would do, but I was a concrete dude for 40 years , so a slab is a no brainer for me!

    DIY Packraft Materials

    Similar fabric is used for snowshoe decks, drysuits, inflatable companies, etc. It is not and easy process if one is unskilled at it, and the repair process for hypalon and PVC material is different and one needs to know what they are doing.

    Layering question

    It took many , many miles to get the layering figured out. I learned most of it humping "the pig" and a heavy ruck! Hunting elk I learned to start out hiking with minimal clothing! If I got too wet , I either had to keep going to my destination or do a sit and dry out, which involved changing...

    Have cancer. Going to Seattle for medical reasons. Fishing? Hiking tidbits?

    I would hit the Olympic P as mentioned. Maybe take a drive over to Leavenworth, beautiful little town. Our mountain training camp was there when I was stationed at Ft. Lewis! Some beautiful country and hope you do not have to spend any time there in the winter! I pray you can kick this...

    Vets refusing to work on hunting dogs

    wolf management debate

    Absolutely correct! Waste of good hunting and fishing time "conversing" with their ilk! Makes about as much sense as voting anymore!

    wolf management debate

    Introduce nothing but spayed and neutered animals. Let them live or die till none are left , then drop a few more. That way there will always be wolves in the wild for photo ops!
