    WTB First Lite Stone Glacier Kuiu rain gear

    Looking for a rain gear set. Solid color in medium or small is ideal, camo would work too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Homemade 2p tent

    Finally. Another of my hair-brain ideas is complete, and I figured what better place to show it off than rokslide! In preparation for my upcoming mule deer hunt, I had borrowed a tent from a friend. A 6.25lb 2p tent.. well that just wasn’t going to cut it for me, as I’m 140 pounds soaking wet...

    Colorado .. a rainforest??

    Ok I’m an eastern boy so maybe I’m getting a skewed view, but is it just me or is central Colorado getting drowned compared to usual? I swear every time I check the weather for my upcoming hunt area, it’s raining. I was expecting dry crusty noses and fire bans, not rain pants and wrinkled...

    Quality work / hiking boot

    Afternoon all. I’m in the market for a new pair of boots, not specificiay for hunting, but I figured if anyone knew quality boots, it’s you all. I run a lawn care company so I’m on my feet all day, in damp grass, and riding stand up mowers so I take a lot of shock impact to my legs. A lot of...

    Another bag post?.. Mammut ? Hyke and byke ?

    I’m what you can an over thinker. Actually, that’s probably an under statement. Anyway, I’m doing some research for my first quality sleeping bag. I want it fairly light, down, packable, and price friendly. I know that’s a tough combo, but I don’t get out that much. I get pretty good discounts...

    I need tent help

    I’m new to this backpacking gig. This will be my first backpack trip/hunt so I’ve got a lot to learn. On the off chance I don’t love backpack hunting, I chose to borrow my sleep setup from a friend. This also helped me keep down cost since I had a lot of other crap to buy. The tent I’m...

    First Backcountry hunt pack list

    Maybe this isn’t the ideal thread for this so direct me if not, but I didn’t feel worthy of the ultralight guys and didn’t want to limit myself to just the mule deer group. I’m headed to Co for my first backpack trip in September. Temps are looking to be up into the 60s/low 70s and lows in high...

    Colorado high alpine hunt advice

    Now look, I’m no idiot. I know questions about specific units get hit with the same scrutiny every time. The age old “do your own research like we did” and the “no one is going to give away their hard earned secrets”. I get that, and I’m not asking for a waypoint on a hidden gem. So, against my...

    Camera Land shoutout #120394930

    It’s been said and said, but I think these guys deserve the praise. I’m fairly new to rokslide so was a little unaware of Camera Land. I was on the search for a tripod setup on a limited budget and saw there name get thrown around. I figured what the heck, I’ll give them a call. Next thing I...

    Buy or rent Satellite communication??

    I’m an Eastern boy who makes one trip a year to the west. I like the idea of having a sat tracker with me for communicating and, God forbid, if something were to happen. Million dollar(or I guess 300ish dollar) question. Do I buy one for such infrequent use, or just rent one? Is the one I buy...

    Scarpa Wrangell GTX

    Is anyone using this as a do-it-all boot? I’m considering these for everything from tree stand hunts here in WV, to family hiking trips in the mountains(Colorado this coming year), to back country hunts like the Breaks or possibly looking at the Sawtooths area of Idaho. Any input would be...
