    June hiking/camping in northern Maine

    Folks, there is a good chance I will be working in northern Maine for a few weeks in June this year. The area is very remote and I’m thinking about tent camping rather than hotel or Airbnb and just curious if the black flies are so bad that this is a bad idea? I am coming from West Virginia...

    Converting Magnetic Azimuth to grid Azimuth

    You can bypass all the calculations by purchasing a compass that allows you to set your declination. Here in the East it is about 7degrees west declination. Suunto makes a good mirror compass that allows you to set it Silva makes one too, foresters use these types as it makes things a bit easier.

    WTB WTB .410 O/U

    Thanks Norcal, I’ve thought about that route but the LOP is still a bit long on the youth semi autos. The doubles are as well but I can stomach the thought of having the stock cut down on an o/u a bit better than a semi. I may still go that route if I don’t get far with looking for a used...

    Bent gun barrel from airline travel...

    Was on a return trip from key west with several fishing rods in a heavy pvc 8’ rod tube (schedule 40 pvc that a passenger vehicle wouldn’t crush) anyways setting in Charlotte waiting for connection and I see my luggage as that rod tube really sticks out. Guy driving the luggage tug comes...

    Water Systems?

    I run the platypus gravity system that you speak of and really like it. The bags/components are pretty tough so I wouldn’t worry about any “backup nalgene”. The whole system is smaller and lighter than an empty Nalgene bottle so unless you are really counting ounces it’s pretty slick. I also...

    Stihl Battery chain saw

    I’ve been thinking about the dewalt as well mainly because I have several 20v Vmax batteries. I’m worried that the 20 volt chainsaw does not have much power compared to the 40 or 60 volt models. Just curious which model dewalt you have?

    Snack stick and Sausage seasonigs

    I’ve had high mountain breakfast and Italian seasonings and they were both pretty good. recently got the cabelas maple breakfast kit and i don’t like it at all. I’ll eat it but just not enough flavor for my taste. I’ll add that this was all with 4 parts venison and 1 part unseasoned ground...

    Tipping a hunting guide

    Do you tip a guide that you hire to drop you off/ pick you up in a certain place on a horse trail and pay for animal pack? We did tip but these are two “al a carte” services that were priced to us by the outfitter and I didn’t know what was expected...
