    Going to Church

    Ah, man! That's definitely not what I want. I imagine the main trails are also overrun with pack horses? Being the adventurous solitary type, I like to take the path less traveled.

    Going to Church

    That's what I was afraid of. I was planning to hike in ~10 miles, which would potentially put me not too far from an airstrip. Thanks for the verification.

    Going to Church

    That's what I've read. It's as much about the wilderness experience and getting away from people as it is the hunt for me. I like the added challenge. And I really like the solitude of the wilderness. That's why I'm curious to know how many planes fly in/out of the airstrips. I'd also like...

    Going to Church

    Idaho's reduced price disabled veteran tags have convinced me that I need to give Idaho a try this year, so I'm going to Church... the Frank Church Wilderness, that is. (7-year AF vet with 3 overseas deployments for conflicts in Afghanistan & Libya) I love DIY wilderness hunting and have...

    Best Ultralight Tent Stove

    Good thoughts, everyone. Thanks for sharing. No one's done a multiple stove comparison, though?

    Best Ultralight Tent Stove

    I've seen several discussion threads on ultralight tent stoves, but I've seen very little direct comparison of one stove to another. Has anyone done direct comparisons of most titanium tent stoves? (Seek Outside, Lite Outdoors, Ti Goat, Kifaru, etc.) I've used my buddy's Lite Outdoors cylinder...

    Hemorrhoid flare ups

    Wipes are definitely used regularly. Imodium will be a new addition that I will ty this year.

    Hemorrhoid flare ups

    I know this is probably more personal than most people care to get on a forum, but I'm curious to see if anyone has similar problems or solutions. I only have hemorrhoid flare ups when on multi-day backpacking trips. I've found that Body Glide is useful in many ways but particularly to reduce...

    Kifaru Gun Bearer with Seek Outside Revolution

    Update: After a few practice walks and adjustments, I've come to the ~85% solution. My pack still pulls slightly to the side of my rifle, but I guess that's to be expected with 8-pounds on one side that doesn't have a counter balance. Two keys to getting the carry that I have deemed adequate...

    Kifaru Gun Bearer with Seek Outside Revolution

    I am using a Kifaru Gun Bearer (universal), for the first time this season, in conjunction with my Seek Outside Revolution pack. I've been doing some test walks recently and found that my shoulder strap is being pulled to the side that my rifle is on, causing my entire pack frame to shift that...

    Shipping Meat: LTL Air Cargo???

    Thanks for the input. I was notified by DeltaAirlines that they only ship cargo for businesses. And yes, you have to first acquire a "known shipper" ID for the TSA. I have yet to find an economical and timely solution. I'll try to call the airport and see if they have any cargo solutions for...

    Shipping Meat: LTL Air Cargo???

    Does anyone have experience shipping meat/antlers as Less Than Truckload (LTL) air cargo? Here's the situation. I've got an elk/deer combo hunt in Montana, then I have to fly to a wedding immediately after and visit family in Wisconsin for a few days before flying home to Virginia. Carrying...
