    Seek Outside - Silex vs. Guardian

    This. 6'3" 220. I have a Silex and a Cimarron. The former comes with me when I don't need a stove, the latter when I do.

    Aram Von Benedikt

    This thread caught my eye at the outset. Self proclaimed expert ethical hunter? Check. Stolen boal? Check. Utardia? Check. Lobbing rounds from 10,000 yards? Check. Translation: dry tinder, gas, and Rokslide matches. I watched from the outset, minute by minute, seeing only smoke and little...

    Kimber Producing New Rifles?

    I couldn't agree more with that assessment. Love my Hunter too.

    Kimber Producing New Rifles?

    Anyone else notice the new Kimber Mountain Ascent models showing up in the usual places? I'm not sure what to make of the "Caza" and "Skyfall." (I didn't realize Daniel Craig preferred CRF.) Coated metal and unfluted barrels, but seemingly similar (same?) weights as the original model. I like...

    What do you do about ATV/Snowmobile idiots?

    Long ago, in a home state trophy elk unit I won't mention, I found on a scouting trip in an area where motorized access was prohibited a multi-mile fresh two track with a couple quads packing chainsaws at the end of a long path of chopped logs. After investigating what I needed of the area for...

    Top shelf dehydrated meals?

    I shared one example here that's tailored to my preferences for when I need a big meal. I also make a chicken teriyaki bowl that's on the lighter side. Both cost around $8 and take all of 30 minutes to assemble 20 meals and seal the mylar bags. The recipes weren't too tough to create. First...

    Glad to hear of another satisfied user. With all the positive reviews here and elsewhere, I figured I couldn't go wrong grabbing one.

    Nutristore Southwestern Pork and Rice

    I recently acquired a can of Nutristore southwestern style pork and rice and was pleasantly surprised by the quality. At $7.50 a meal (double the listed serving for 660 calories), plus $0.74 for a resealable Wallaby mylar pouch (which comes with labels and O2 absorbers) and $0.15 for a packet of...

    Raiding the Larder

    Our excess blackberries are slowly becoming adult beverages (fermented on Burgundy yeast). So far 5 gallons bottled, 10 bulk aging, and another 15 about to start.

    2023 Wyoming Elk Draw Results

    My first glance at the interwebs after a couple hours of work this morning left me feeling pessimistic. Checked at lunch and was giddy to find myself among the surprising few to get a general with 4 in the special. Crazy to think that 10 years ago it was an easy OTC acquisition.

    Best 270 Win bullet for Elk

    I'm in Whelen's camp of lightweight monos: 117 Hammers for my 270. Fast and flat for under 400 shots. The Hammers have also been silly easy to load across multiple cartridges, and I'm no pro. After a couple decades pitching 180 SBTs and ABs out of a 300 WM, the effectiveness of the little mono...

    Your favorite stable meat sticks?

    Another vote for landjaeger. Stumbled onto it a few years ago at a local german deli. Won't head into the mountains now with any other stable meat stick.

    Jumping in with both feet on fruit trees

    Can't help you with identifying that particular tree. But we do have a couple acres of fruit and nut trees in 7a. Best advice I can recommend is get to know your local pests and figure out how to manage them. Also read up on pruning, and (assuming you don't get into grafting) purchase bare root...
