    Steripen using Jetboil ?

    Hi All, Anyone using your jetboil or equivalent to purify water with the steripen? I've been brining a separate nalgene then pouring it into my bladder, but would be nice to save the space in the pack. Thx s

    Horseback Hunting Partner - Western MT

    My good on-foot spot is relatively sparse for folks, but thankfully I got into elk at a few spots last year so if I surprise you in your honey hole, I can move on...unless you've already got a bull down and need a hand packing in out...

    Horseback Hunting Partner - Western MT

    Hi all, Looking for someone in Western MT (I'm in the Bitterroot Valley) who'd be interested in doing some horseback hunting together? I've always hunted solo and just got back into horses recently, with a young mule. Have done lots of horse camping at the trailhead but want to start packing...

    Hi there, Saw your post for a possible horse hunting partner. I'm down in the Bitterroot and while I can ride plenty with my gf, she doesn't hunt so am looking for a horse hunting buddy. Normally I'm hunting solo on foot, but want to start using my young mule. Plenty of horse camping...

    Draft Elk Management Plan is out

    Wow, that's a very thorough, well written commentary. I hope you've got an exceptional relationship with FWP so they'll read through the whole thing. For next time, a small formatting point to consider would be to put some kind of bullet point summary outline of the recommendations/comments...

    Tell me about your elk camp canvas tent setup! Add pictures if you got em

    I've not bothered with anything yet to hold the washers with bolts, so am just a little careful. Can keep it super simple but man it makes set up and take down so nice and easy.

    Tell me about your elk camp canvas tent setup! Add pictures if you got em

    Kodiak Tent tip #2: Can us lag bolts and washers instead of stakes. I tried this a few times last season and made the 16 stakes go in and out like a breeze. Just need a solid drill or impact gun. Previously in hard ground I bent a couple of the stakes, but this made it super easy.

    Tell me about your elk camp canvas tent setup! Add pictures if you got em

    Kodiak Dirty floor tip I use now is to get a cloth painter's tarp for inside the tent, one that's light enough to clean in the washing machine.

    Big sky total archery challenge

    The courses are super fun and challenging. Supposed to be there Fr-Sa but looks like I'll need to cancel to be here for some concrete pouring and friend's coming into town. Last year I got paired with great people both days to shoot with. Dedicated archers and solid people. Enjoy !!

    Lightweight pants with waterproof seat and knees

    Last year I tried the First Lite Corrugate Foundry pants and really liked them. They've got the waterproof seat and knees. They're not as light as the Kuiu Kutanas which have been my go-to pant for 30-70 degree weather, but I actually like the bigger venting sides better on these. Sticking...

    Judge orders new work on Bitterroot grizzly plan

    Yes, that's the video I watched showing how the grizzlies had the biggest struggle crossing I90. In case anyone else is interested, the article showing the new relocation spot in the Sapphires is: https://www.kpax.com/news/western-montana-news/grizzly-bears-captured-near-lolo-and-relocated...

    Judge orders new work on Bitterroot grizzly plan

    Just last year they captured a couple near Florence and Lolo and from what I understand, opened up a new transplant area in a "remote spot in the nearby Sapphire Mountains". From the very little research I did and watching an interesting video lecture of an old timer grizzly expert, it seemed...

    Non resident Landowner incentive.

    Agreed, I'm fully supportive of a compromise action that's not "perfect" for one "side". One key they mentioned that I'm supportive of are that the permits are just on the private land of the landowner, which theoretically should increase private land pressure on the elk and possibly push some...

    Building a shop/barn in phases

    Ditto. I'm not ready yet, but gathering info too and as just quoted about $32k for a 30x60 pole barn with roof and three sides. Does not include a concrete floor. I had asked if I could save money by not doing the sides, but he said the same thing a steel building company said, that there is...

    Building a barn and getting horses.

    I totally understand about being in/out of horses. It's so easy to think of it in terms of finances of buy/maintain/rent etc. or the amount of work it adds to hunt trips, etc.. The bottom line seems to come to an understanding that it's a lifestyle. Some people certainly use horses as a tool...

    What're you doing on rigs who's manual says "no chains up front"?

    Don't tell Shrapnel that, as it looks like he's having fun there. Actually, when I round a corner to one of those north facing sections in winter/spring, I'll often park it and walk a bit to try to make sure not big drifts. At 52, while adventurous for sure, whether it's good or bad I...
