    CO License Cost 100% Increase

    This would be a good thing, if the Colorado Parks and Wildlife were still the same as the former Division of Wildlife. Before the State combined CO Parks and the DOW, most of the revenue from the DOW went straight into conservation. But, then the CA libs in the State Legislature decided to let...

    Using smartphone for hunting GPS

    BC Nav. on a Samsung Note4. Works very well. Put the phone in Airplane mode and the battery lasts a long time. I carry and extra battery pack (15000 mAh/55Wh). I also have the DeLorme InReach, which pairs with the phone. The extra battery pack charges both, including the 18650 batteries I use...

    Broke my katadyn hiker pro. Looking for suggestions on new filter.

    I have been frustrated with this before as well. Now I bring along the syringe that is used for back-flushing and about a 12" piece of water bladder hose. I can draw water and fill a squeeze bag from the smallest of water sources. It really doesn't take that long to get a couple of liters.

    Broke my katadyn hiker pro. Looking for suggestions on new filter.

    I used to use a Katadyn Hiker. But I switched to the Sawyer filter and I am very happy. I bring a small Ti cup though to fill up the squeeze bags when the water source is thin, such as the one you described. It seems like a hassle, but a little 8 oz cup weighs nothing and makes it possible to...

    DeLorme inReach

    I'm really liking my SE. I use my phone as a GPS and to interface with the InReach. I didn't see the need for the Explorer. I also don't think it is that big a deal to type a message right on the SE. Some people complain about this feature, but how long of texts are you really going to send...

    How do you pass the downtime/stay motivated on a solo hunt?

    That's funny, I do the same thing. I sing to myself as well, especially if I am hiking back in the dark alone. Glad to know I'm not the only loon in the woods!
