    hiking boot for rocky terrain

    Having worn boots every day now for 31 years for two different employments I'd have to say my vote for the rocky terrain would be for a more substantial boot without any kind of liner though my current boot has the goretex lining (Danner Mtn Lites ) We are all uniquely different with our own...

    Tacome 4dr long box vs access cab long box

    I know where your at..... I bought the access cab. If I had more than one passenger more often maybe I would have got the 4 door but the long bed was outa the question and the short bed is about useless. Maybe where our thoughts differ is that I have a 4Runner for when I have a larger crew. I...

    Danner Mountain Light II - An on-going review

    Glad to see you and your boots still getting along! 25k is quite the walk with the same planned for the next day? Tells me a lot about the boots. Oh, and I like the pics of the boots. I know it is a boot review but something about worn in leather on individuals' boots telling a story only they...

    Any bird hunters?

    Well Scott C, its not just about killing birds but that's nice too! I enjoy the time with my dog and the scenery. The road trip. The break from normal everyday life. Never ate a bird I didn't like. Same goes for trout. Displaying a fly in/on the water that entices trout in a mountain stream...

    Danner Mountain Light II - An on-going review

    Cooler? Ah hell, whose to say? Mine has a goretex lining that I'm sure doesn't help with keeping foot temp down. We've had some 100*+ days already and I had no complaints. Many years ago when I was living 24/7 in boots the only thing for sure to keep my feet happy was foot powder and dry socks...

    Danner Mountain Light II - An on-going review

    Really appreciate your review. I've had Danner Ft. Lewis boots in service for 28years but tend to get warm. I've tried newer molded sole boots but they never last past a years work and hunting so I'm always back to the Danners. For my arid location I recently bought the Danner Light while in...

    4th gen 4runner vs 2nd gen Tacoma

    I own a 4thgen 4runner and enjoy it. Didn't need the V8 and was happy to have a timing chain vs. the belt with the V6. The weather tight box idea I understand being I also have two trucks. I'm 6' and can sleep in the back.

    Which Caliber for a primary Hunting Rifle?

    My .02 Years ago I had the same thought. Do I buy what I already reload for , 30-06, or the lighter M70 Featherweight in .308? I went with .308. I'm told the rifle can be lighter just due to the shorter cartridge. Less iron = less weight. The cartridges are the same until you start to reach out...

    1st Lake, Eastern Sierras. I've been waiting for the opportunity to take my son and after 16 years we finally made it! I was so stoked! A hike I once took for granted but you guys know how life is. Patience.
