    Copper Spur UL3 vs Cloudburst 3?

    It seems real nice. I like the little creature comforts like the gear pockets etc. I hate to say it, but I think your 3rd buddy just didn't want to hoof a tent around....

    Copper Spur UL3 vs Cloudburst 3?

    Doing a fly in moose/elk hunt in Northern BC next year. There are cabins at the base camp, and horseback from there. Would like to pickup a light tent for spur hunting from there, as well as backpacking in the summer. I'm looking for a 2 (comfortably) person tent with a floor, and fully...

    Opposing/Blocking Rezoning

    A huge part of housing unaffordability is all the NIMBY's. So while you shouldn't be able to stop development just because you say so, noise, light, dust, traffic etc, like cnelk said, are all very valid concerns that should be heard by the council. If you frame it as those specific issues...

    Northern BC Moose/Caribou closure

    We're in some pretty dire straits here, so I thought it deserves a post all its own. There is a proposal to move ALL resident moose hunting in Region 7 (the north eastern quarter) of BC to limited entry draw only. The Gov is already worried that hunters will simply transition to Region 6 (north...

    BC Moose

    Thanks a lot for helping us out. Its a slow death by a 1000 cuts. Share it around as much as you can. Rumors from someone closer to the Ministry running the show said that they had a deluge of comments against the closures, so they left the Resident hunter feedback open for another day. Every...

    action nitride/melonite or dlc coating

    Keep in mind, the DLC coatings themselves are super hard and very very thin, but the material underneath wont be. Any impact with rocks/metal that is severe enough to dent the stainless will go right through the coatings. Nitriding give you a better surface, but whenever you apply that much...

    Swaro BTX Tripod Advice

    i was looking at it a while ago. Seemed great on paper, but it’s short, the Center column is tiny, and its got some of the skinniest bottom sections I’ve ever seen on a tripod. If he’s willing to get a short tripod for seated glassing, better to buy that, than a tripod you could never use at...

    2020 BC Caribou

    That country looks gorgeous. Looks more like Brooks Range than anything I thought we had here in BC. Where abouts was this?

    Tripod- Center column or no center column?

    I don't run a tripod edit: bipod, so I decided to go the FLM CP30 without a center column. It should turn into a really nice rifle rest, even when close to prone.

    15 or 18 power binos?

    18's if you're also taking a set of 8x's. 15's if you only take 1 set and a spotter.

    Flashlight / head lamp

    Nebo Transcend headlamp. Dirt cheap. Uses rechargeable 18650 cells. Comes off the strap to use as a flashlight Pair it with a Nitecore F4 battery bank/charger (uses 4x 18650 cells to power the bank) and you're good to go for all your electronics.

    Benro tripster with a Benro GD3WH gear head ?

    They both use the 3/8-16 connection, so they do fit each other. Also wondering if anyone uses the GD3WH geared head. Seems useful for high power spotting scopes, but by god is it heavy.

    Tripod- Center column or no center column?

    Well shoot, I've been lurking for years but don't have enough web cred to PM anyone. Thanks a lot for all the replies! Middleofnowhere , The FLM CP30 setup I'm looking at is very similar to your RRS. Narrow top of tripod, and no center column makes the legs fold up to a really narrow...
