With my gravity setup I cut the top portion off of a 1 liter Aquafina bottle. I then roll up my dirty bag, sawyer mini, and necessary hosing and nest it in the water bottle. This both protects my dirty bag in my pack from punctures and the open top bottle is pliable enough to scoop water out of...
Effin bear spray....
I took the family on a little road trip earlier this summer and we did quite a bit of hiking through bear country... seeing quite a few bear along the way. One evening, after a hot, muggy day of hiking, we had gotten some fantastic takeout mexican food which had some real...
I'll agree 2315 was a crummy bill (I am 100% opposed to any database) and the sponsor politicians were quite underhanded in how they moved it around the session.
I think what needs to change is the current philosophy about who is responsible in determining access. Currently, a landowner/tenant...
NDGuy, here is what landowners hear every time sportsmen tell them the types of things you posted above,"hey, your property rights just aren't that big of a deal and your over reacting".
I want public lands to be public... but I also think we need to respect private lands as private. I've seen...
If a first post was a Nascar jacket, you'd be Jeff Gordon.
I've never carried a hatchet while hunting although I have lamented that choice on several occasions. I purchased one last summer at a garage sale for $1 (I believe it is an old Husqvarna) that I plan on sharpening and molding a kydex...
Great crappie sir.
I may need to head down some of the reservoirs between VC and Jamestown in a couple weeks to see if I can find some. I remember heading out to pipestem on spring break when I was in college and hammer them back in the day. I don't think there is a fish that eats better than...
24 continuous hours of this sled is an unfortunate plight on our Christmas season. The hackneyed quotables from this film fail to move the needle on the humor scale and Ralphie is not endearing.
For my money, it's "Home Alone" for the Christmas' win. Also, other Christmas movies that are...
I watched a couple episodes last night via my Roku on prime (my first time). It was fantastic, no commercials plus it seemed like the video quality was better than watching on Directv.
I hope they make the nests for them again. I have an SL5 with a stove boot so it's great for light winter camping, but I never got a nest and thusly my wife and kids do not love sleeping in it in the summer due to creeping crawlies and buzzing stingies. I don't see an option on their website...
I travel quite often and find luggage is essentially a disposable item. Especially luggage that is checked.
I typically don't check bags any more as between my backpack and a carry-on duffle I am good for 4 days most of the time (unless I have to bring a bunch of materials/samples/etc.). When...
Nope, no chrono for me. I just purchased a basic reloading setup and am pretty primitive so far. This hobby is starting to turn into death by a thousand cuts as a guy assembles the components and gear beyond the "starter kit".
I learned a lesson of what not to do over the weekend as I'd run up...
