    Alaska Unit 13 Moose Hunt

    Pretty much only one person historically fill that a tag a year. Though the country is pretty much grizzly country, Claude over at Alpine Creek Lodge has been doing enough to encourage thinning them out that black bears have been sighted. So worse comes to worse you might have a actual shot on...

    What round for bou?

    Let’s talk underwear

    Minus33's boxer briefs are my choice for 24/7 wear. I get about 9-12 months out of a pair before they wear out. Plenty of support, no riding up, and excellent odor control.
