  1. One item to keep in mind, if you run trail cameras with microSD cards, you can put the SD card in a Samsung phone in order to check mass amounts of photos quickly as well as do mass deletes in seconds without reformatting and deleting everything on the card. Saving the photos from your trail cam onto a Samsung phone is easy and takes very little time. I had to do that this weekend and was satisfied with the results.

  2. Nice job on the canoe. Fantastic idea. Did you mount a trolling motor to it? I wonder if AZGFD would want to do a cash grab and need it registered since it may have a motor on it? They informed a buddy of mine he needed registration, when he mounted a 30# MinnKota tiller on 13ft Old Town years back at Blue Ridge. 

    I picked up a couple teal while out doing some late season elk scouting on Saturday.

  3. Here's an apricot chile BBQ sauce that I make to use with spare ribs, pulled pork sandwiches, etc. I'll try and sub out the apricot with the reduced prickly pear juice.

    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 cup finely chopped yellow onion
    3 cloves of finely minced garlic
    1 1/4 cups apricot preserves 
    1 cup ketchup
    1/3 cup honey
    1/4 cup rice vinegar
    2 tablespoons soy sauce
    1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
    1 can of Hatch green chiles
    1 tablespoon finely chopped chipotles in adobo plus 1 tablespoon adobo sauce from the can
    1 tablespoon yellow mustard
    Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

    Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat until shimmering. 
    Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic 
    and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

    Add apricot preserves, ketchup, honey, vinegar, soy sauce, 
    Worcestershire sauce, Hatch chiles, chipotles, adobo sauce, 
    and mustard and stir to combine. Bring to a boil, then reduce 
    heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce has 
    thickened slightly, about 20 minutes.

    Puree sauce with an immersion blender, or transfer sauce to the 
    jar of a regular blender, and process until smooth. Season with 
    salt and pepper to taste. Let cool to room temperature, transfer 
    to a jar or container, and refrigerate until ready to use; sauce 
    can be made in advance and refrigerated for up to 2 weeks

  4. I've been running the Danner Gila for 2 years now. Yearly stats on them are 10+ quail hunting trips, 3+ days of HAM javi, 1 elk trip, 1 leftover deer trip, countless scouting trips and occasional hikes on the north side of Squaw Peak. Great boots, no issues. However, quite a few people are saying that Crispi is the way to go. When my Gilas run out of life, I may try and give those a go.

    Prior to my Gilas, I was running Vasque Skywalks (older Red Wing version made in Italy) for 10+ years. Hundreds of miles with no issues. Resoled twice and a few sets of laces. I still have them and wear them from time to time.

    I told my wife the same thing last night.....got in a fight with my cable company and SLing because all the sudden I don't get my Dback games.....both companies telling me the other company is responsible for my geolocation getting hacked by a third party company....blah, blah, blah.........what the heal is a geolocation, I just want to watch a baseball game!!!

    You may want to setup a VPN to run your Sling and other streaming devices. By doing that and routing it thru another location (eg. Texas). That should "geo-locate" you to another area to where you should be able to get D-Backs games. 


  6. Looks really good. Never thought about doing a sous vide burger, but definitely something I'd like to try. Your previous post on elk pastrami motivated me to try one. I have an elk roast that's been in the brine for 7 days. Pulling it tomorrow and then in a smoker over oak until it hits about 150*.

  7. Where in the heck do you find what style the back pack is. I'm sending 2 back for repairs but can't find any where on the pack what style it is and I can't remember. These are great packs with a great warrantee. Great pack someone needs to jump on it. If I didn't have 4 already I would be all over it.

     

    I just went thru this exact scenario. I had a pack with bad zippers (who doesn't with Badlands packs??) that I had to send back. Went on their website and wrote that it was a Superday. Looked like the closest one to me. Didn't seem to matter too much. Repaired the zippers and back to me that same week.

     

    Bump for a great deal.
