    Military Spec 'woobie' wet poncho

    I have the Kifaru and two Milspec ones and have spent countless nights under them inside and out. I second everything Desk Jockey says. He outlines their strengths and weakness well. It's a really great piece of kit, until your counting ounces. It's warmth to weight ratio is quite poor but...

    Best 2 way radios

    I agree with N2horns for the most part. I got into the ham radio world a bit and did a bunch of reading. Regulations are slightly different here in Canada. The crux of the matter is that no radio punches through hills. Doesn't happen. Even on the first ocean, it's the curvature of the earth...

    2018 for First Lite...30 new pieces.

    I agree with dplantz. To me 25 deg is quite pleasant. Just a long sleeve lightweight shirt and pants is all I need when moving. Then a puffy jacket for long stops. I wouldn't bother with puffy pacts pants unless I was planning on staying in place for more than an hour. I'm also accustomed to the...

    First Lite Pre orders

    Yes, I'm just in the process of putting my first order together. However I'm in Canada as well and shipping things back and forth usually involves a drive across the border each time. I'm going to wait and see what everyone says about the new sizing and see. Had anyone tried ordering the same...

    Lower Mainland BC - FNG

    The rokslide community was recently introduced to me by some of the more respectable and legitimate hunters I've met. I lurked around a bit and decided you guys sure know your stuff. Looking around I have a lot to learn. I have an extensive background in the outdoors. Somewhat new to hunting in...

    Sleeping pad questions

    It's been said a bunch of times here's, but I'll reiterate. If I had to pick between a bag/quilt and pad, I'd pick a pad every time. It's not equally important to a sleeping bag, it's way more important. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

    "Lightweight" backpack hunting is an exercise in frustration. Total weight?

    I'd love to see some more pics of that trekking pole bipod adapter! Looks like a really slick concept. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
