    Manitoba Moose 2024

    Only thing i would say is plan for all weather. Start of the week for us was 75F. End of the week was 21F. I personally live in my waders the entire time as its going to be 90% from a boat. It just keeps you dry if you are fishing or getting in and out. They are a great group and your pilots...

    If it's moose country there will be black bears as well. I've seen them caribou hunting on the tundra. Wolf will be much harder

    Good luck to you on the hunt! I was just out this fall north of Snow Lake and came back empty handed. Wasn't the best of conditions for calling but that's moose hunting in manitoba.

    Manitoba Moose 2024

    Being from Manitoba i've never heard of the outfitter. Do you know which lake you will be hunting out of? Also just make yourself aware that the drive from Winnipeg to Lynn Lake will easily take 14hrs as the road past Thompson is unpaved and usually beaten up. Manitoba does have some...

    Sitka Mountain EVO jacket

    The issue will be if you dont actually require insulation, this piece falls short

    Sitka Mountain EVO jacket

    And that's why I have the houdini. Weighs nothing and does such an amazing job.

    Sitka Mountain EVO jacket

    Way to niche of a piece. The back being non windstopper under a pack makes sense. Until your pack is off, then what? You must put on a wind piece or insulating layer...unless those are not needed then you may be SOL. I really was hoping they would redesign the mountain jacket and more...

    Is the Sitka Ambient a must have?

    I would compare it to the 240, 240 being warmer but less windblock than the Mountain Jacket.

    Is the Sitka Ambient a must have?

    I had the kelvin active and now have the ambient hoody. I do not regret the lateral move as the ambient moves moisture so well and keeps you warmer. I would say its comparable to the KAJ in regards to the wind, anything above 10MPH you are going to feel it. The outer of my choice with my...

    Is the Sitka Ambient a must have?

    Been running all winter with pack training. I've found currently base + ambient hoody + kenai vest + whatever you choose for an outer to be amazing for myself.

    Is the Sitka Ambient a must have?

    weird they didn't want it tested out. When does the review drop? I'm trying to narrow down my midlayer selection as i do have too many i believe. Ambient Hoody/Jacket, Atom LT, Aerolite, Just had the Kenai and sent back as i felt it was just an odd fit and overlapping everything i currently...

    Is the Sitka Ambient a must have?

    Why would you say this? I just returned my Kenai....going to order 2 sizes on their next sale to see which actually fits me better as the XL was really box shaped unlike any of their other gear

    Is the Sitka Ambient a must have?

    Primaloft has yet to answer my emails and messages about the claimed CLO value of the Evolve series. Polartec Alpha Direct is stated as .38. They do seem identical in feel and look, just love my ambient hoody but its trashed and i've actually yet to wear it hunting....just hiking and outside...

    I think you could go 1 over the other by the sounds of it

    Kuiu Kenai vs. Sitka Ambient

    Well thank you for the info. I wanted to get the kenai and get rid of my ambient Jacket purely for the pit zips. But I'll keep it for now
