    The Myth of sustainable Elk numbers....a saga of government conspiracy

    After reading thread after thread of the same info about diminishing elk numbers throughout the west, thought Id share a true story from this past season in Colorado. A dear friend and elkaholic was bowhunting in the flattop wilderness last year with several other guys. They hiked and hiked and...

    New elk strategies for a changing hunting culture

    With the plethora of NR resident hunters pouring into places like Idaho, I have begun to give deeper considerations to changing tactics for elk hunting. The most obvious for me, is going deeper. Instead of having a base camp where the trucks are parked, looking more and more at a remote spike...

    Why the huge increase in Idaho NR hunters?

    There is little doubt why Idaho was sold out (all units) this elk season. I'd like to offer 2 reasons. One...hundreds and hundreds of guys bailed out on Colorado. Colorado just aint what it used to be and after years of hard scrabble hunting, guys are coming to Idaho. When they come to Idaho...

    Prescriptive easement

    Last year we started a thread dealing with trespassing through our land to gain access beyond to public land. We articulated our problem with this as it made less secure our plans to construct a cabin on the property. There were a few that commented that we hadn't done a survey and didn't know...

    Has the coronavirus affected your hunting plans?

    Outside of having to cancel a spring bear hunting Saskatchewan, no. In fact....I cannot wait to get back to the reality that is only found in the wilderness. Wondering how all of our freedom loving compatriots are dealing with this.

    The challenge to find the right backpack

    This website is invaluable for numerous reasons but most notably is that it really helps to avoid issues or products unnecessarily. Ok.....I tried on the Metcalf (MR) today. Nice. My challenge is that I am also looking at the Stone Glacier and the Exo. There are no dealers of either of these...

    Black Rifle Coffee Company

    Just recently drank some of this coffee....none better IMO. After doing some reading up about this company, found a lot to like. Veterans, hunters....all American ethos. In short; love 'em. Was thinking that these guys are naturals for the Rokslide community.

    Spotting scope may not be best choice for me...back to Binos

    Just picked up a Vortex Razor 27 60X 85 Great scope, mechanically and aesthetically perfect. Looking through this, it just doesn't have the clarity that I was hoping for. Not hazy but not piercing clarity like my Meopta meostars. Very possibly selling this scope soon.
