    DIY Colorado Ram

    I could probably write an entire book about this hunt, but will do my best to keep it short(ish). I have wanted to hunt bighorn sheep for as long as I can remember, but somehow felt like it would never happen. I would put in for the draw every year basically out of habit, not assuming I’d ever...

    Long Shot- Axel Identification

    This is a long shot, but I’m hoping someone might be able to help me identify what typed of vehicle this rear axel might have come from. It came with the property my wife and I bought a couple years ago and just has been sitting there. Unfortunately there really aren’t any part or identification...

    Ruger Skeleton Makeover

    My first rifle was a blued Ruger M77 MKII chambered in .270 Win with an old Burris 3x9 scope. My wife now uses it to hunt, but it doesn’t quite fit her. I just swapped out the boat paddle stock and put a Boyd’s laminate stock. Also replaced the old Burris with a Leupold VXIII 3.5x10 I had...

    Cleaning Muzzleloader Before Hunting

    I just got home from the range and the gun is shooting well and hitting where I’m aiming. I had planned on not cleaning it until after elk season (September 12-20th) as to not change POI, but now am wondering if 3 weeks is too long to wait. I’m shooting 100 gr charges of BH209 and fired 13-14...

    Calling Cows

    This is my first year hunting during the rut (hopefully) with a muzzleloader, but only have a cow tag. There is lots of info and articles about calling bulls, but not much about calling cows. Anyone have any experience/advice? I’m hoping to use it as a tactic once I get close and am not going to...

    Looking to Hire- Elk Consultant

    I've spent 7 straight years in the woods chasing elk and am yet to harvest one. I typically hunt with my dad and and a buddy, and none of us have harvested an elk in those 7 years. In fact, I've only ever seen one group and that was a small herd of 5 last year. I've hunted a mixture of 1st and...

    Adventure of a Lifetime

    Where to even begin... It's been a month since returning from the hunt, but it still doesn't seem real. My dad hired a transporter to drop us and 55lbs of gear each into a remote portion of Alaska to chasing rutting bull moose. It was an adventure beyond anything I could have imagined and...

    Caring for Rain Gear

    This is probably a really dumb question, but looking dumb is nothing new to me :D. I have the FL Boundary Stormtight jacket and pants and am wondering if I need to do anything to keep them waterproof? I've seen the Nikwax, but don't have any experience using it. Do you guys wash your gear at the...

    Anyone live in Montrose, CO?

    My Wife and I are CO natives that are ready to get off the Front Range. Too many people, too much traffic, and getting too expensive for our liking! One of the areas we're looking at moving to is Montrose and I have a few questions I'd like to PM someone that lives in the area. Thanks in...

    Flying with Backpack

    My dad and I are flying to Fairbanks via Alaska Air in a couple weeks. We're trying to figure out the best way to get our gear there and don't want to have to deal with the hassle of shipping. For obvious reasons, I'd like to keep as much of my gear in the cabin of the plan with me rather than...

    Dude Wipes

    Anybody have any experience with Dude Wipes? We always take baby wipes on our camping/backpacking trips and am curious if this product improves on traditional baby wipes or if it's all marketing. We'd use them for taking a back country shower and just keeping clean in general after butchering an...

    Hanging Meat in the Backcountry

    This is probably a really dumb question, but what's your strategy for hanging meat in the backcountry? Do a lash a game/meat pole in between trees and just tie your game bags to it? Do you just tie your game bags to whatever branches you can reach in various trees? I'm going on an Alaskan moose...

    Wish I had a tag

    My wife and I found a spot that's relatively close to our house and not a horrible hike to get into. I originally found this spot hoping it would produce some turkeys, but unfortunately haven't seen any turkeys or sign of turkey. I picked up a trail cam and have been back a few times to check it...

    WTB or Rent- Bear Fence

    Going to Alaska for a moose hunt in September and would like to take a bear fence for peace of mind. I've seen plans and am prepared to build my own if necessary, but figured I'd check here first to see if anyone had one they were looking to sell or willing to rent for a few weeks. Thanks! Heath

    Doctor Optics?

    I have my vortex razor spotter up for sale/trade on craigslist and a guy offered a trade that included a pair of Docter 10x42 binos (he valued them at $600). I have never heard of them and have done quite a bit of research and am not turning up much info. Any body here familiar with them and...
