    Any interest from wood turners?

    I’ll weigh it tomorrow and get an estimate. Tell him an Ohio State themed pen would be wonderful :LOL:

    Any interest from wood turners?

    I used to do a fair bit of work on a wood lathe, but after moving and losing access to a spot for a work shop, I’m offloading the last bit of wood I have to free up some garage space. I’m not sure what to price this at or request in return, so I would leave that open to the recipient. I’m...

    CO front range fitness: Mt Morrison ed.

    Updated the original post to include the two weight classes of #20 and #60, I think that's a good setup. I'm excited to see how things shake out!

    I feel like we should pick a standard pack weight or maybe two: a heavy and a light weight and then have people target that weight, maybe?

    CO front range fitness: Mt Morrison ed.

    As much as fitness goals should really be based on yourself and not concerned with what others are doing, I tend to find enjoyment and thus greater motivation when there’s some friendly competition involved. As such, I’m opening up a “time trial” of sorts on a front range hike that I use as a...

    Trail cameras

    I like having cameras out just because I like seeing what's out there and I occasionally capture some interesting scenes. I also like acquiring data - what time of year / time of day do different species travel through a certain area, when does it change, stop, etc. Like @Big Sky Guy mentioned...

    Long term hunt planning

    It definitely resonates with the "401k" discussions above. Quite an investment, and that feels a bit difficult to commit to. While I don't have any kids, I do feel like I'm trying to save up for a home at possibly one of the worst times in history.

    Long term hunt planning

    It's been a mix, actually. First three seasons were rifle and last two were archery. I've been at it solo, so the learning opportunities don't come as quickly. The archery hunt has consumed my soul though, and I came extremely close to letting an arrow fly this year - had it not been for a pine...

    Long term hunt planning

    That's a great perspective, and it only slightly conflicts with my actual 401k

    Long term hunt planning

    Got it - that's officially my only plan! Luckily mule deer has proven to be much better odds, so it's not complete misery

    Long term hunt planning

    As I'm sure is quite common around here, I'm well into the planning / preparation phase for the 2025 season. I have general ideas in place, concepts of a plan, if you will, but I typically second-guess myself for a while before finally committing - and a recurrent lack of success in the elk...
