I was hoping you'd tag a bear today, tough deal for sure. Thanks for the update.

Hope you find it and let everyone know what you find out from G&F.

Nice job Shelvin, that can be a tough unit for goats with a bow. Way to get it done and thanks for sharing.

Boo!

Nope. Not me... Sorry I dont have any suggestions for the OP

Nothing wrong with carring an epipen around, get the one with two doses and familiarize your hunting buddies and your boys on how to use it as well as a short list of emergency phone numbers and nearest hospital... check out the DeLorme InReach too. Your biggest issue will likely be storing it in a way that temps won't be an issue, I think pens need to stay in temps less than 85. Ideally you find the allergen and won't be on edge as much.

Thanks...I agree, I'm torn about selling it but maybe won't have to if no one buys it.

If the quilt is bought at listed price, I'll toss in a brand new 6L Sea to Summit Ultra Sil eVent compression sack. Quilt fits nicely and can be seen in the pic. This is a brand new 1 lb 5oz sleeping quilt and sack, a $375 setup for $250.

Ben keeps this trailer clean and his ranger does fit.

The trailhead is about 4 miles from Strawberry, the road is usually in pretty rough shape but you can drive a passenger car to the trailhead but you want to take it easy. The hike to the springs from the Strawberry side is about 4.5 miles, all down hill on the old mail trail (think old jeep trail, with a few narrow points) the trail is an easy walk down but then it's almost all uphill on the way out. I'd recommend hiking up in the morning as the hike up is almost all western exposure and it can get toasty on the way up. I've hiked down in less than 45 minutes and hiked up in a little over an hour. If you're looking for a primitive experience I'd recommend going during the weekday. This area is hugely popular and can get a lot of weekend traffic (seem to recall a forest service report that Fossil Creek had 90000 visitors per year). Some people bring all their trash stuff (beer, wine, coolers, water bottles, sleeping bags, tents, trash) and leave it there because they don't want to carry it back up hill...so the camping areas near the springs can get kind of trashed. People will also hike up from the waterfall or along the old flume road from the 708 road. For more solitary experiences you could walk down the old flume road and then drop down towards the creek and find some nice benches with your own swimming hole. It's a beautiful area, I've had some negative experiences up there from other users but it is worth seeing. Personally, I think late summer early fall is the best time to go, the sycamore, ash, and sumac trees are changing color and there are less people. If you go bring a mask and snorkel and remember that even though there are a bunch of fish it isn't open to fishing. Also, the gnats can be horrible during this time of the year and during August so be ready for that. It's a great spot and it's cool to see all that water come streaming out of the ground. PM me for more information.

Was it a whole egg or perhaps part of a shell? Seems random and a pretty cool sight..that's for sure. I seem to recall that in book about the guy that raised the flock of Osceola turkeys he said that the turkeys ate eggs, frogs, and smaller turkey feathers that they found while going about their daily routine. They'd be pretty curious about any item they'd find. If you've ever watched a chicken, you get the idea of their fixation with shiny objects and such. I could be wrong but it's what I seem to recall.. Thanks for sharing

Seriously good price. These are great packable insulation pants that are nice for keeping in your pack for those Dec, Jan (even Sept-Nov rim country) hunts where you're getting warm on the hike in and settling down for long glassing periods on cold mornings. Also seen guys take these pants on sheep and goat hunts in Canada and Alaska. Tried and true at a smoking deal. If these were a Med I'd be the new owner. Bump..

I had a long response for you but lost it... First things first: Buy a good compression bag, waterproof like eVent or silnylon, the right size to fit your bag. With your price point and temp ranges you have way more options than you listed. A couple things to think about. Have you used a liner before? They arent for everyone and can make sleep harder for some people. Are you a warm or cold sleeper? Warm sleeper (on average) can get away with less bag than cold sleepers. Have you considered a UL quilt? Same temp rating but closer to 1lb with similar price point. Best advice I can think of is to actually get into a bag with the liner youre gonna use and the sleeping pad and any extra clothing and see how it fits. The next is the warranty and company name. Rei and some local stores (Az hiking shack) carry different brands that will meet your needs. The two you listed (Sierra Designs and BA) are good bags. Havent seen Kuius in person. Check out the Marmot Hydrogen, (personally I dont like the 3/4 zipper) Mtn Hardware Lamina Z Brooks Range Drift Montbell down hugger #3 Rei Radiant Good luck! Buying a new bag is a personal thing...and youll be surprised that you didnt cut that 2 extra pounds earlier.

When we fly this is where we park, daily rates are $7.25 for uncovered parking. You can find coupons on their website as well. We've never had to wait more than 5 minutes to get on the shuttle for departure and less than 10 minutes for arrivals, the drivers are courteous and will load and unload your bags for you and drop you right at Delta's door and your car.

Rebecca is an accomplished hunter, and a successful big game guide with some challenging hunts and kills under her belt. She'll weather this just like Melissa Bachman and Kendall Jones did. No big deal... Edit: Glad you can rant safely within the CWT community. As someone who rarely watches the news and ignores social media I might not have seen this 'trending'.

Back to the top for this one. Can't believe people don't want to buy a $200 shotgun, it would be a good home or camp defense gun.

Wow... Seems crazy that this is for sale still. Someone could buy the DIY frame components from Montana Canvas for less than $300 and the conduit from HD or Lowes and have a great tent for a bargain price. Someone has to buy this tent...

Renew this thread... Still have this ammo Bump

I found a full box-20 rounds- of 123 gr metal case -aka- fmj Remington 7.62x39 in the garage. I bought it years ago for some reason and never used it and since I dont have a use for it...someone else must. This same ammo found here: http://www.midwayusa.com/product/1601449036/remington-umc-ammunition-762x39mm-russian-123-grain-full-metal-jacket Id like to sell it for 15.00 or trade for equal value of other ammo (40mm or 3" 12 gauge turkey or steel). Located in N Phx area, Carefree Hwy and I-17. Thanks for looking

Bump for the lefties..

Not trying to nit pick, but Game and Fish doesn't pass laws, Az legislature does. Sounds like something was lost in translation. Some additional information in the form of house bills or senate bills might be helpful. I am hopeful that such 'laws' wouldn't be passed but we can always be surprised. I certainly hope you can provide additional info.

Sold-- thanks
