My just one pack has packed a lot of animals. And it smells that way. What is the best way to wash a pack? big commercial washer? Take to a dry cleaner, let it air dry and deal with it?
thanks

Curious as to what others think. But you are on a backpack hunt, and you take a wolf. do you end the hunt and get the wolf hide out or do you skin the wolf hang it somewhere and keep hunting for your intended quarry?
I have a small parcel of land, that borders bigger parcels and national forest. Lots of turkeys(nuisance birds) running around. I let a fellow and his kid hunt the land. Anyway, If I am in my house or shop, and they are hunting near by, can I go outside and do stuff?
If the turkeys are...
Another couple and I are going to raft the grand ronde river in north east Oregon. Does that count as exercise?
completely self supported, rowing my fully loaded raft. should be fun.

I got mine in 2007 and it works great. I do have the 4 man. which would actually be 4 kids. 3 grown men will not fit. unless they are around 5 feet tall. 2 people it works awesome. I mainly use mine, solo on bike pack trips. I can lay in my sleeping bag and get a fire going in the stove...
The RMEF gave my brother and I a plaque last night. My dad was a big supporter of the rmef. I joined in 1992, and have continued his legacy of giving to the elk foundation. Hope you are proud dad.

some of us have been using non hunting clothing for hunting in the mountains for years. just pick up earth tones and you can blend in and have technical clothing.
It dawned on me, that a lot of folks on this site, don't get in the mountains year round, and don't really now what normal snowpacks are like. It might be may on the calendar and you are in shorts at home. But there is still lots of snow up high. These pics where taken may 1st in north...
I was snowmobiling yesterday in north Idaho. Depending on your situation, excellent snowpack for may 1st. Might have to keep riding for awhile. For others, bad snowpack, you aint getting in the high country for awhile.
For the most part I consider my self a backcountry rider. Love the day rides in the middle of nowhere. I discovered hunting off of mountain bikes in the early 90's when I was living in Alaska. Basically shot a lot of "grouse" with .22's off of my bike.
I had a forkhorn bull elk down in...
