    Garmin InReach Messenger User Experience from CO

    I think what it comes down to after we compared them is, the messenger has a bigger battery, real world estimates between the two of us if he was at 65 I’d be at 85, these are estimates mine you just off our rando trail conversations. I liked that I could just toss mine anywhere except upside...

    Garmin InReach Messenger User Experience from CO

    Hey all just wanted to give a quick update. My wife got me a messenger for Christmas and finally it is elk season. I used this on the expedition plan so I could text unlimited and it worked flawlessly. My brother has a mini 2 and we shared the same results with the messenger sometimes yielding...

    Sitka Whitetail Layer Feedback

    I wish they made an incinerator lite. I think that would put it around fanatic temps and price but without grandmas carpet on the outside. I’m not a fan of the fanatic exterior. good luck in NY. Your setup with the mode should hold 30 but you will get chilly after a few hrs.

    Sitka Whitetail Layer Feedback

    I think your question depends on your plan duration on the Deerstand with or without wind. I think you’ll be good with that set up for a few hours I’m guessing at our three in the mid 30s you will start cooling off pretty quick. I would pack you’re super down pants in your bag and maybe look for...

    Sitka Whitetail Layer Feedback

    I would do the stratus set Over the fanatic unless you have cash for both. I would use LW base, fanatic hoody on the walk in. Once in tree or at the base add on the midi. Once I start to get chilled after an hour or so I’d add the stratus. LW base, equinox pants on the walk in then stratus...

    New Sitka Kelvin Aerolite Jacket

    I’m interested in the temperature factor as well. I love my KL hoody but am always interested in something “better” or more diverse.

    New Sitka Kelvin Aerolite Jacket

    Looking at the specs they seemed really similar, the new aerolite was 0.9 oz lighter I believe. I wish the sitka website people would get better with descriptions, it has always annoyed me when some pieces have a ton of info and some have hardly any. Would it be hard to try and standardize it...

    New Sitka Kelvin Aerolite Jacket

    Hey all, after doing my weekly run through Sitka's site to see if there is anything I "have" to have I noticed they had a new puffy style jacket, the aerolite. Looks like it replaced the Kelvin lite hoody which is annoying being I just bought one. Seems comparable to the kelvin lite hoody...
