Word on the news last night is that a hunter built a campfire and it got out of control. Sounds like they know who he is, apparently he's not going to be arrested, but he's looking at one heck of a bill.

Just want to see if anybody else here would be interested... I asked Mountain House if they can do individual-sized servings of various entrees in vacuum-packed packages on-demand. If they are willing and able to do so for this year, would anybody else here be interested? If they can and we...

I saw one guy who got a tag, but haven't heard anything back from him since he first posted. Anybody else going to be there this year? And who's going to D-8? If I don't snag anything in X-10 before it closes, I'm moving down into D-8, back by Sherman Peak again.

For a good reason. Hardstalk (Andrew) and another individual, who asked to remain anonymous, did something that I never expected and I don't think that I could ever properly convey my gratitude to them for what they did. They both wish to keep exactly what they did between us and I will...

Awesome - that's all I can say. There's a company that sells a trail mix it calls Paleo Trail mix, it's nuts and fruit plus jerky. Of course, I can make that at home and while looking around, I came across Maple Bacon Jerky. Yum... My wife thinks it's gross, I mixed it up with some...

For those of you lucky enough (Ha!) to have to lug one of these along, Big 5 has the Counter Assault Bear Keg for $69.99 and if you sign up for their e-mail harassment program, you can get 10% off on the spot, for a all-up-price (including taxes) of $68 and change. The cheapest I found on the...

What is the informed opinion on these? Optics Planet has several of their scopes on sale ($100 - $150 range), which is why I'm asking. Obviously, my preference would be something like a Vortex, but honestly, I will probably not be able to spend that kind of money for several years. Right now...

I was reading some stuff on Backpacking Light ( cakpackinglight.com ) and found a couple of things: Packit Gourmet ( packitgourment.com ) does freeze-dried and wet shelf-stable food. Several of their items were highly regarded on the BPL website, including gumbo, bangers and mash and chili...

Me and the wife are heading out there tomorrow for the fireworks show. Looking for a good place to park and watch the show from and what there is to do before the show. Thanks

My dad applied for an elk tag, intending to do points-only, but he got a tag in the mail. He's planning on going out next year, so he was going to get the point to use for that draw. He said he contacted Colorado Fish and Game and was told that he could get a refund, but they wouldn't give him...

I was doing some digging and found some interesting information on the various game animals in the three national forests. It's from this year. https://livingassessment.wikispaces.com/Chapter+8+Fish+Plants+Wildlife+Inyo...

Sierra Trading Post has ECCO and Lorpen socks, don't know the quality, etc, but they're 80% off. There are links to two below, but there are other ones on sale, you'll have to search the site, add stuff to the cart and see if the discount works. Use promo code YZY5157W...

http://www.rei.com/product/849341/trekmates-flameless-cook-flask-kit I'd never seen this before, but I was looking through the REI sale items and found this. It says that it will heat 12oz of water to 146 degrees in 10 minutes. It requires carrying heating packs, which are about $15 for a...

I was wondering if any of you have had the same problem- it started with the towels, we'd wash them, then when I used them, they smelled a bit funky. Then it went from a bit funky to smelling like they just came out of the hamper when I dried off. Now, the rest of my clothes are getting nailed...

If you're looking to get a personal locator beacon (an actual beacon, not a SPOT, etc), ACR has a $50 rebate throgh August 15th. The best price I have found so far is on the GPS Store for the ResQLink, which is the smallest and lightest version, for $250. So, it would be $200 after the rebate...

I hadn't really considered doing it just because I wasn't sure what I'd do with one other than maybe have it mounted, although I don't where because my wife wouldn't let in in the house. The entertainment value of watching the dogs react to it the first few times would definitely be worth...

My wife's going to kill me, but I know the shopper in her will be proud - I just ordered another 2 pairs of the Icebreaker pants and 4 Redram short sleeve shirts, all merino wool, for $151 shipped. Put in promo code ZXX69652 when you check out, it expires June 13th.

They're on sale, plus you get another 20% off with code SITEFUN513, for a total of 44% off. I'm getting two pairs of pants on sale for $100 shipped. They also have Smartwool XL and 2XL on sale. I don't know how long the sale lasts.

Just wanted to let everybody know that Tactical Tailor ( www.tacticaltailor.com ) has all of their Army Combat Uniform (ACU) and Foliage Green gear 50% off. They have vests, pouches, hydration pouches, hard cases (good for cell phones, GPS, etc) etc, all of it is MOLLE compatible. Another...

I know I'm pretty new on here and don't know any of you, but if you're the praying kind, I was hoping that you might put in a word for my wife and son. We found out last Thursday that he's a boy and as well as can be determined from ultrasounds and blood screenings, he's healthy. About 10...
