I know it is not as important as airbags but this might ruin your day! http://www.cpsc.gov/en/Recalls/2015/Rocky-Brands-Recalls-Rocky-Rubber-Snake-Boots/

The Mystery Ranch pack sure would have made this a little easier. I would use it on all my elk trips!!!!!

Just a reminder folks. Don't forget to report and save the non reporting fee!!!!! The deadline is actually 31 Jan but I use New Years as my reminder.

Roseburg Turkey, ling, and a Rogue springer

Chetco Chinook and my kids first steelhead.

Sure would have been nice to have the 90% gear while Hunting the Flat Tops in Colorado 1st season. This was our 3rd of five trips packing out bulls.

I really don't want to part with these but I have some other priorities and I already have a great spotting scope. 15 X 56 SLC WB (these are the discontinued SLC model) I am throwing in the tripod foot that I purchased to use them on a tripod. I'll also throw in a small older tripod. It has...

I touched on this a little on another thread. On our middle hunt (Cow in Medicine Bow N.F. WY-12) we came across a elderly hiker who had to leave his wife on the mountain in high-teen overnight temps. They had lost a trail then gone cross country for several hours. He had a working high end...

Well the epic 2014 Wyoming and Colorado Elk trip is in the books. It didn't start well. My hunting partner (AKA Sherpa) lost all his gear en route the SLC airport. Dealing with the airlines cost me two of the precious remaining days of archery season but it worked out when they delivered...

I know there is probably a link or tab to report to a mod but I can't find it. It looks like a ZERO post spammer "count wood......." is hitting folks PMs. Whats the quickest way to get them out of here? I don't feel the need for Spam, I don't want to learn to read minds and I don't need Viagra:)

I try to spend at least a couple of weeks a year in my wall tent whether in elk camp or just camping. I absolutely prefer it for camping and hunting but I am yielding to my hunting partners who are bending over backwards to help me. This season I will be dragging the RV out to WY and CO for elk...
