In reference to Walt's comment about my experience with gear: "Good judgment comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgment."
Now you know my system for learning.
Looks like your dance card is getting pretty full Walt. I'd love to be a raven...I would fly over and watch you and Hunter periodically. He's going to have a real true adventure up there...a lifetime memory. Not that it really matters a lot, but there's something very unique about camping/hunting from a tipi in moose country.
Looks like I will be up there doing another solo hunt. I'm still working on the exact dates, but it will be in the rut. The 8-Man stays home and the Sawtooth goes again.
My buddy from last year...I'm avoiding him.
Wing and a prayer!
