Great video and hunt. Congratulations.


Alec, how well did the attack pants and guide jacket work in the colder conditions? Worth the money?

Attack pant are awesme!  Had a base layer on under and they worked great. The jacket is actually the chugach, which the gray pants are as well, both awesome pieces of rain gear, best I have ever used, breathable and extremely water proof.  Guide Jacket is next on my list.

One moment you're flying south for the winter, then - BANG - gravy.

Orwell could just bring him to small claims court for knowingly selling a broken product! :chuckle: 

Seriously though, tha Sitka pack had a 4 year shelf life and then the whole thing went into the crapper all at once. Even non load bearing straps were breaking off and fabric tearing all over the place. Just another reason to be done with Sitka. A least their packs.

The rest of their gear is definatly nice, but there is a reason you dont see any guides using the Sitka packs even when they have all the rest of their gear Sitka, Definatly gonna go to Mystery Ranch.
