    ONX question

    I can push the location button twice, once to center my location and the second time the map rotates so it's facing the direction I'm traveling or what's called track up. Problem is as soon as I touch the map to move the map around or zoom the map it instantly rotates back to North up. Anyone...

    Blind recommendation?

    I'm taking my 77 year old dad antelope hunting in Wyoming this September and I'm thinking a blind might come in handy. Dad doesn't get around to well so I'm thinking that maybe I can find a water hole or likely looking spot right off a 2 track road to set the blind up at? Dad needs to set in a...

    So with all the elk packing threads going on now and what weights what I have been pondering just how clean does the elk meat need to be?

    Wyoming antelope point?

    So do I get a point in WY if I didn't draw or do I have to purchase one? Buddy said that there was a box to check to get a point if you don't draw but I don't remember if I checked the box or not, heck I don't remember seeing the box.

    Kenetrek Hard Scrabble tongue tearing up Darn Tough socks.

    Decided to get a pair of Darn Tough socks which don't appear to be all that tough considering the tag on the tongue of the HS started to pull fibers and make a hole in the sock after wearing the socks for one day. Noticed this after I ordered a couple more pair of DT socks. Did the only thing a...

    I can't do the crawling deal anymore as my knee's are trashed, wondering what a good low profile easy to wear knee pad is?

    Be aware that there is an Update for the inreach sync program, inreach unit and the Earthmate app. The Earthmate app update kind of simplifies uploading maps by giving you the option of using a way point or region to select the map area.
