Hey everyone! We had a great Hunt this year and I was able to take quite a few photos and some video during the trip. I thought I would share a few pics a day as I go through them. We had temps from the high 20s to the low 80s during the two weeks so there is a wide range of photos. I hope...

About six months ago I got some wise meals samples and just thought I would tell you what I think. I was skeptical at first but to my surprise they are really good. I think they are much better than the MT House meals. I just got my order in for this seasons hunts. I ordered mine from Amazon for...

Does anyone tend to slow down the more strenuous training a few weeks out from the season? I normally still do everything I normally do but just go a little lighter on the weights. Pack outs still at 70lbs. What is everyone's thoughts.

Hey guys I am new to digiscoping and would like to try it with my binos. I know my camera will work it is a Sony dsc-rx100III. My question is how would you mount it to the bino eye piece so it will stay. I made a fitting for the camera that holds the camera great and allows for zooming in and...

So far I have done 3-4 mile hikes with Spenco PolySorb Cross Trainer Insoles. Two hikes @ 60lbs and one @70lbs. Not a tremendous amount of elevation change maybe 150-180 ft in elevation change. They do require some trimming off the sides and toe areas of the boot as do most insoles to get a good...

I have always wanted to do a Archery Goat Hunt but since the point deal for a non resident would be out of the question at my age 53, I have been considering a hunt in BC. Has anyone done a Archery Goat Hunt in BC or does anyone have any recommendations for a hunt like this. It would be nice to...

Hey everyone. Over the years I have dealt like many here with multiple trips of transporting meat then having to deal with cleaning up the pack when I got back to camp or home. Well this year I started looking for a somewhat light weight liner for the pack that didn't cost a arm in a leg. I...
