    Chainsaws

    I've been needing a saw for occasional use and for incase a trees over the road when heading to and from the trailheads. I impulse bought a Stihl MS170. I guess it's just a home owner light use saw. It only has a 16" bar. So this probably would limit me, right? It was on sale for $160 so the...

    Kifaru paratarp and bivy

    The EE isn't tall enough. I'd look at the Mountain Laurel Bug Bivy 2. Maybe look at a flat tarp too. Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk

    Enlightened Equipment Recon Bivy Review

    With my Xtherm pad and a pillow it was super tight! Awesome bivy just wasn't tall enough! Super bummed! Their quilt is a huge game changer and the company is super pro hunting! And they don't hide the fact they are hunters. Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk

    Thinking of going floorless

    Just don't set up in a bowl or in a crick and you'll be fine. I have started using a UL Bivy in my Sawtooth because the ground bugs in Montana are a pain through September. Not needed but who wants spiders and ants crawling on them. Another option is going to a flat tarp and UL Bivy ike...

    Is the xtherm sleeping pad noisy?

    I've had an Xtherm the last two years. I really don't understand what they are talking about. I've read all these reviews too. I believe they must be engaged in an activity other than sleeping... The noise has never been an issue. The pad has a super high R value and weighs a pound. What not to...

    WTB Elnightened Equipment Reacon Bivy

    Just throwing this out I'd look at a Mountain Laurel instead. I tried the EE last year and it was too small. The bug mesh and zipper would press on my face. The ML has a lot more room. Same design too kind of. I've seen them used on eBay recently. Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk

    Activity tracker

    I've been using a Fitbit Charge 2 for the last year and it's OK at best. I do a lot of gym workouts and the HR cuts out a lot. Also I'll feel myself maxing out and I'll only be at 130`ish when I know I'm at least 150. I know a wrist monitor isn't the best but I expected better for $150. Kind...

    Generators

    Looking for a small genny to have in my truck back at the trailhead to recharge my Quiet Kat batteries and my Dark Energy packs. I know zero about these and I can't even tell the difference between wats and amps lol! I know these Quiet Kat batteries need quite a bit of juice to charge so I...

    WTS Smith and Wesson 69 44 and Gunfighters holster

    I bought this in 2016 and probably have only put a hundred rounds through it. Carried it for a few hunting seasons. But my inner Glock fan boy decided to go to a 10mm. Looking for $875 shipped for the gun and holster. Located in Great Falls MT Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk

    Titanium cup/mugs

    Evernew. For a drinking cup MSR makes a funky shaped insulated mug with a lid. It seems drinks warmer longer and it fits into a pack really well because of its shape. Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk
