    Thanks for the extra info. Great choice of career. My son went to academy last fall and is now a firefighter here in Ketchikan. He’s loving it.

    WTS Eberlestock K1 mainframe and Vapor 2500/5000 bags

    Thanks for the quick reply. I took a look at their site for refresher and I believe you are correct. Bummer cause the key issue for my son (besides a tall version likely fitting better) is he needs a smaller belt. He's still so thin he can't cinch it up tight enough. I'll look for some...

    Eberlestock F1 Mainframe Gamechanger Mod

    Considering this for my son's F1. It looks like the K4 hip belt comes as a package with the lumbar pad and pocket. I don't see them listed separately. I got the impression from you materials list they are separate. Can you clarify? Thanks!

    Dealing with disrespectful hunters...

    Soo lame! I've had a number of bad encounters in Oregon and Washington. Thankfully that kind of thing is rare here. You made the right choice just getting out of there.

    SE Alaska Sitka Deer Hunting, By Jeff Lund

    Great article. Get's me excited for alpine season to start again! I think you were spot on throughout, but lots more could be said about many of the topics you covered. For people new to SE AK, the risk of getting cliffed out is I think the most important. Especially on the way down. Always...

    Which layer do you put the most importance on?

    First, boot, then hard shell/rain gear outer for SE Alaska. Running Crispi Colorado GTX for alpine hunting and KUIU raingear. bullet proof so far.

    Kenai Chest Holster Review, by Rokslide Member Luke Johson

    Looking for good cartridge and budget rifle for 14 y/o

    The .308 belonged to my mom. Inherited when she passed away and gave it to one of my sons. No particular logic 😀

    Grinding shank meat

    I tried deer shank this year osso busco style. Will never grind it again! No one who tried it believed it was venison. So tender!

    Smoked elk/venison recipe

    Yes, good advice. I’m familiar with that and quite careful. Just did a batch of bear summer sausage. Had to smoke them a bit hotter than I would have with deer or elk.
