    I couldn't agree more. I would say most people can afford it if they realigned their priorities. Just the fact that the average car payment in America is now $520 over 72 months suggests that the average person could afford to put away a hundred bucks a month if they downgraded their stupid...

    Sheds

    The correct term is a "Buschel"

    Arrowhead hunting

    Just approach it like you're picking out a hunting/camping spot. Near running water where you can see a very long distance. Side valley off that running water where you're in some shade and out of the wind. That's where I would make my camp. Out of the wind, near shade and running water...

    Deal Alert!

    Alaska Tarp and Tent is having a 15% off all Arctic Oven Tents and 10% off accessories sale. These things are legit made for camping in the north. Zero condensation. Replace that drafty and ratty wall tent. And with their price tag, 15% is pretty substantial! When I bought mine today, the...

    Nieghbors are restless~

    Yeehaw! I can't wait! I glassed up a big scary brown one way up in the alpine this weekend. Grass is getting green in the valley floors, they should be down any time.

    Work Boots

    What you do? Do you need safety toe? Electrical hazard? There is a reason everyone in the oil field wears the Red Wing Max Bonds. They are the only boots that hold up for more than a couple months, mitigate (claim to) electrical hazards, remain waterproof in the saltwater and drilling mud...

    Moving out of state and hunting licenses

    I'm shocked at how terrible the residency definition is on the NDGF website. I guess not a lot of people try to push it; but the vague definition they provide seems like they are really leaving the door open for it to be abused. I agree that even if you move the day before the season, you are...

    Melt - thoughts

    Serious question because I'm a far ways away and haven't drilled a hole - is the ice really that thick? Less than two months ago there were conversations about open water on Sak and the river being open through Bismarck. And then it got a little cold and dumped snow on top of snow on top of...

    Iditarod 2019 sled dog race to Nome Alaska

    I've only been here 5 years but it's almost always warmer here than back home between December 15th and March 1st! On average I would say maybe 5-10 days below zero at my house and I've never seen colder than -14 at my place. My parents are up to visit to see the race and they can't believe...

    Round or flat earth

    I could see Denali as I ate lunch at sea level in Anchorage yesterday - approximately 138 miles away. So there ya have it, she's flat!

    Seek Outside Tipi

    Good to know, guess I'm ordering a liner! Yeup, I love SO as a company, but they have their niche. I love mine cimarron for backpacking or if I have an extreme weight limit. But a base camp where weight is not an issue I'd go a more comfortable route. I'm giving the Luxe Hercules a try this...

    Seek Outside Tipi

    I wish I could help you out with the filming. If you're looking for someone to talk you into buying one, I can help you out with that! Kurt, are they making an actual condensation liner for it? I got the half nest last year and it does an OK job at diverting condensation.

    Senate backs massive public lands, conservation bill

    Ted Cruz better straighten out his voting record on public land issues if he wants to run for president again in 6 years. There are states such as Nevada, New Mexico, Montana, Arizona, and Utah that could go either way and there are tons of people in these states that are very influenced by...

    New archery World record bighorn ram from South Dakota badlands confirmed

    sign me up for that addiction meeting. For some reason my stupid brain thinks that I'll be drawing a tag in a particular area this year. So I spent WAY too much time this morning researching a tag I probably wont draw. Not that it matters, once I find out I didn't draw it in 2 weeks I'll just...

    Was C.T.E Stealing His Mind? A Gunshot Provided the Answer

    Damn, this here is a tough read. I had the pleasure of working with Jason on a project about 4 years ago. I would have never guessed any of this was going on and the news of his death in September floored me. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/31/sports/cte-football-hairston-super-bowl.html...

    Warm Hoodie

    YEUP! What he said. I wear that thing several times a week and it's like wearing two hoodies. It's my one luxury item that I carry in my pack and worth every ounce!

    Alaskan father and son sentenced for killing a bear and her shrieking cubs

    I think they were bear hunting at the time. Season is open on POW Sept 1-June 30 and it's a 2-bear, OTC unit for residents. And I'm pretty sure one of the convictions was false reporting. I read the dad tried to check in the adult bear that the kid shot as his own (false reporting). These...
