I have a four season that I packed into the Alaskan Wilderness.   Its awesome, but it is heavy.   I use a little two man from REI that I got years ago.   Its of good quality, but isn't much more than a coccoon.   I've been in a couple real doozies that I am glad I didn't have to survive another day out in while in it. 

I'm slow at work today, so I will see what I can find.  Providing I can continue to tap this bootleg wi-fi :)

2010 scouting trip in Alpine Lakes area prior to high buck.

What kind of tent is this?  I don't recognize it right off the top of my head (I recognize most gear but I freely admit that I have a problem with that.   :chuckle: )

The first three camp pics are from a back pack high hunt with my son and brother. The last two pics are a horse pack-in hunt with my sons and dad.

2003 High Hunt




2007 Grouse Hunt, my son's first Wilderness ride, and he got to bag a few grouse himself.







2007 High Hunt, Zach's Camp, in the Pasayten. After a week of settling in, pretty comfortable camp. Seen a number of bucks, just two points, couldn't grow a third.






2008 September Archery Elk
Overnight trip in good weather. Got into the elk in the hot weather on that one.
