    Trailcam straps

    Some years ago, I had a trailcam stolen. It irked me and ultimately changed my approach to putting trailcams in the woods. Now, I affix bark onto my trailcams and that makes them a lot more difficult to see. That was step one. Next was the trailcam strap. In the past, I've used trailcam straps...

    How to mount a GoPro to backpack

    I just got a GoPro and am looking at options for mounting it to my backpack (Seek Outside). I can’t use the chest harness as I always wear a HPG chest pack. I’ve seen one system from Peak Design that uses a mounting plate on the inside of the shoulder strap but that seems like it would rub...

    Do you seam seal your backpack?

    I just received a bag from Seek Outside and I'm thinking I will seam seal it along with the other three bags I have of theirs. Before I do, I wanted to get an idea whether most people seam seal their bag or is there a reason not to do so? Did you seam seal on the inside or outside? Did it...

    Packraft Seating Height

    I've decided to get one of the models from Alpacka for fishing in flatwater. I don’t want to sit low in the packraft and the only two models that have a high-elevated seat are the Oryx and Forager. I’d buy either in a second but most of the time I’ll be backpacking it into a remote location by...

    Seek Outside mesh Talon built in or detachable?

    I'm a fan of mesh on the face of a backpack to carry moist clothing or gear. When separately ordering a larger-sized bag (4,800-6,300ci) for your SO, would you prefer the mesh built into the pack as a pocket or use a detachable mesh Talon? Having it built in as a pocket frees up 6 attachment...

    I already have a SO Fortress 6,300, on the breakaway platform, which I really like.

Should the Unaweep 6,300 handle and carry weight...

    Using a Seek Outside backpack without a Talon

    I ordered a custom 4,800 bag (camo X-33) and am awaiting its arrival. It will be used on an integrated system (versus breakaway). I'm wondering if there are any downsides, or issues, if I do not use it with a Talon. Obviously, to compress the bag, I'll need to run long straps from one side to...

    Seek Outside new hipbelt pockets

    Today, I received two of the new and improved hipbelt pockets. They will go on my gray (X21) Gila and they were ordered in SpectraGrid. The first thing I noticed is how lightweight they are. I just finished installing on the hipbelt and it was very easy. They don't move around at all and can...

    I have a pair of the Schnee Timberline and love them. They fit beautifully. I'm looking for a lighter weight boot and looking a few of the Crispi (Lapponia, Crossover Pro Hiker, Monaco). Does anyone know how the Crispi fit is the Schnee Timberline?

    Seek Outside packs

    Thought I would post pictures of my new Gila and existing Fortress 6,300. Took the Gila backpack out for its maiden voyage today. It carried like a dream. All the weight was on my hips with no weight pulling down on my shoulders. That included a very heavy revolver in a chest pack that was...

    Securing the Seek Outside rolltop

    I'm aware of two methods to secure the rolltop of a SO pack. The first is to roll it then run a strap with a buckle and fasten each side along the side of the pack using a strap and gatekeeper, You can see this method here: The other method is to roll it then use a "Y" strap with 3...

    Reflective Tree Markers

    In the past, I've used FireTacks to mark a tree so I can easily get into and out of the woods at night. I've heard of people using reflective paracord and draping it on tree branches or putting reflective tape on clothespins that would be clipped onto thin branches. What type of reflective...

    I have a SO Revolution Fortress 6300 that is my main backpack. I love it. Looking for a lightweight overnight/weekend pack and am strongly considering the SO Gila. It is on the Integrated vs Breakway platform, has the Revloution frame, and can haul a lot of weight if necessary. The gray...

    Schnee Absaroka

    I just received a pair of the Absaroka. Wowser. I can count on one hand the pairs of outdoor footwear I have found in my lifetime that were comfortable from the moment I tried them on. The Schnee Timberlines that I got last year felt incredibly comfortable the first time I slipped into them...
