Big nest fan for tipi/tarp camping with my wife, if you need to test some prototypes just holler. :D

Very very cool Kay9!!! Love the pics and the story indeed!!! Great read. I made my first trip up the haul road this year, but was only for sheep. Its worth the drive even if you weren't to bring a...

Yep, I agree, just setup the 6-8 man the same way, no biggie, no set back needed.

I watched this prior to setting up my 12 man tipi. However, just for the heck of it I just started on one peg of the tipi and worked my way around the circle/oval eyeballing it roughly as I go. ...

Nah, a nest or bivy in the mega tarp is what I'll use. Far from my first rodeo in a floorless shelter ;)

Leave town for a sheep hunt this morning!!! Got our megatarp in the mail yesterday afternoon. It made the cut for the trip just by 12 hours. Didn't have time to seam seal it before the trip so it...

Yes sir, flying out on the 9th!!!

But did you carrying anything out other than your camp when you did that??

I think most people could do a 7-10 day hunt with just 3700 cu in and a couple pockets or a grab it. However, the issue...

For 5 cots and room to spare a 12 man at a minimum would be my guess. You could easily pull 5 and cots off in the 12 man, but if you planned on 5 cots all the time I'd opt to step it up to the 16...

My DT1 and DT3 are slated for sometime this first week of July, however, I won't be back in town until the 18th of July. I'll put it straight to sue though on the 19th with a 4 day/3 night packraft...

I removed the stays of my Timberline one and loaded it up and carried it on. Mine has 26" stays so that alone would have excluded it as a carry on likely.

Here it is with the stays removed:...

Set of camo/blaze orange fleece panels for G2 Longhunter pack-$15 Shipped

24" KU carbon stays-$55 shipped

I'd just put the stuff you had in the POD in a Kifaru grab it to help compress the pack better and stow your bulkier items that you'd like to access quicker.

Here is...

Figured this thread deserved a bump to the top. LOTS of great rifles in here.

Just got done with my lightweight rifle setups:

Kimber Montana .308 with some "stuff" done to put it on a diet with...

Patrick, what might be the cost and turn-around time of sending in a KU 5200 for a power pull upgrade??

What Steve really meant was feel free to PM us your findings of the survey. :D

I also have a Browning TI in 325 WSM that weighs in at 5.4 pounds naked and 5.7 pounds with optics on it. Its going to be what I carry for grizzly and black bears this spring. :D

Kevin Weaver in Colorado used my stainless trigger guard as a template for his CNC machine to make aluminum trigger guards. You only save about 1.5 oz not 2.5. The stainless trigger guard is 2.4 oz...

I have my Kimber Montana down to 4 pounds 12 oz and 5 pounds 8 oz or 5.5 pounds with scope/rings/sling.

Actually removing/swapping/or replacing the stays in a Timberline is simpler than a KU from what I have seen.

Are you gonna pack a silnylon bag inside your ULA epic?? I thought about going that route, but I know for a fact that the KU material is hands down stronger than a silnylon bag in the event of a pack...

Of the one McHale pack I saw, my buddy owns it, I wasn't that impressed certainly not twice the pack of a Kifaru as they price would indicate. The overall weight is more than a Timberline Line, and...

You mean people actually read those? :D

Should a great site in its own right and looking forward too hanging out over there in additition to my other cyber wanderings finding folks to chat with...

If going solo a simple 6 oz bivy is what I prefer, if going with my wife then a 13 oz nest from bearpaw tents is the ticket.

Thanks yeah it is in foliage, like I order all my Kifaru pack things that aren't KU. ;)

You can still access your rifle plenty fast without taking off your pack. It certainly isn't meant to be...
