Been lurking awhile now. Really appreciate the gear reviews from like minded people, especially interested in the lightweight packs etc due to a couple knee reconstructions and destroyed low back. I hunt mostly blacktail here and been trying for a moose/mule deer trip to the interior every year.
Thank you

Any bear/cougar opportunity for you?

Yeah there's lots out here, haven't really got into hunting them though, but I did grab a cat and bear tag this year. Gotta find the bears up the mountain, don't want a fish bear. I usually find lots of cat track in the snow but no snow this year.
This scratching post is around 8 and half feet to top scratch. I couldn't reach it lol
