    How well do you think the solar can keep up with the cooler watt consumption? R

    12v/Truck Fridge and Freezer

    Looking to see if anyone is/has used one of these as a basecamp option. 40/50 quart size. Many times ice replacement is several hours away. Thinking power station in the 2k watts and solar to run. Have generators but I'd like a quiet gas free alternative. What do you have and how did it work? R

    2 person Trekking pole tent

    We run the triplex with carbon poles. Partner is 6'6" and has plenty of room. Weighed the setup tent, carbon poles and 8 light stakes, just north of 30oz. Only problem is it lightens your wallet considerably. Have seen 35mph ish winds and think it could take more. Good pitch helps. R

    Truck Topper for camping

    Have any of you had to improve the "seal" at/around the tailgate to keep the dust out? Is this even a problem that needs addressing? Anyone with solar on the topper? Any mods to help with the middle of the night piss break? R

    Why the NR HATE?? Let's fix it!

    After reading a fair portion, have a question. How many R of western states apply in other states also? If so, are the R bitching about you? Something about a pot and a kettle. R

    wolves, we have enough.....

    You act as if they can be reasoned with. The game is fixed. See conservation by ballot. With this ^^^ why do we pay for PHDs conservation employees to "direct" conservation efforts/programs? R

    wolves, we have enough.....

    There were 25 million people in the US around the time bison were being market hunted. Around 350 million now. I'd say this has an effect on the numbers they could achieve/will allow now, R

    Western Mountaineering Regular vs Long...

    6 foot, used to be 6'1"ish but that's another story Have used the reg and the long in the mega and badger. A bit beefy these days and prefer the long. Haven't taken them below 20, bow season, but enjoy the added wrestle room. R
