    Any Crispi Sales?

    Funny you should mention that. There was a discussion here a couple weeks or so ago about their discount code. One person said they called blackovis recently and said they gave them the Rokslide discount while someone else called and was not given that discount. Assuming that's true, the...

    Open tarps and Thermacells?

    I'm not a fan of letting rare health risks dictate how I operate, but living in one of the towns in MA listed at "critical risk" and knowing the consequences of EEE, I know it would just make me have a lousy night sleep knowing I was just under an open tarp. If I were you I'd pick up a...

    Labral Tear

    Its been a while since I've looked into it, but when I had a SLAP tear about 10 years ago the doctor said that they, at the time, were saying it was best to avoid surgery for long-term recovery. I had a grade 2 tear. I never had surgery and regained enough strength to not feel restricted in...

    Shelter System, floorless Tarp/tipi: ground cloth or ultralight bivy preference?

    what kind of tyvek are you using? I'd imagine the house wrap is loud and slippery but the tyvek 1443 isn't loud or slippery, at least for me.

    Antelope Rut and Meat

    When I went for the first time last year we kept running into people who kept telling us how terrible the meat was. One guy said our best bet was to cook the meat on a piece of wood, throw away the meat and eat the wood. After the hunt we cooked some up and it was unbelievably good...

    2018 for First Lite...30 new pieces.

    Did they offer some sort of explanation as to why they are not making zip off bottoms? There seems to be a lot of interest and kuiu's merino is just not nearly as soft and comfortable as First Lites.

    Shrinking Wool

    I bought my wife a pair of First Lite Larkspur pants and turns out they are a bit too big. Since they are out of stock I can't exchange for a small. Has anyone tried to shrink their merino wool successfully, or am I going to ruin it? Thanks, Chris

    What's your Dream Hunt?

    I dont want to avoid giving a specific answer, but for me any hunt that I hear nothing but nature, feel tiny compared to the landscape I'm in, and have good reason to believe that I may be the only person to have ever stepped whereever I may be standing. Sheep, elk, goat, tahr, either will suffice.
