Typically I shy away from backpacks covered in MOLLE and paracord. They scream tactical, military and give an overall perception to others that the bag contains something along those lines. I’m not sure that I would carry this pack around town in an urban environment because of that. I would recommend this pack for use […]
It’s been a while since I’ve been climbing and rappelling; about 20+ years. I recently took my top rope belay test at the local rock climbing facility so that I could assist with tying in climbers and belaying them. It felt good to get back into it. With that comes some new gear in my collection. […]
Below are some photos of Rex Nanorum’s recent successful hunting trip. He was able to, with precision, take down his prey from 200 yards with a 6.5″ barreled AR chambered in 300 Blk. The ammunition was 120-grain copper round. Rex seems to be a natural born predator and has the skills to back it up. […]
Since we are a hardware driven culture (despite the fact that we should be focused on the software first), I’ve decided to do a quick post showing the contents of my backpack here in Puerto Rico. This is the bare essentials and doesn’t include what’s on my person or in my pockets. The bag is […]
Ever since starting our Overland camping journey, fine-tuning our set-up has been an ongoing effort. Each time we venture out to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, my wife and I make notes on how to adjust the equipment to make nomadic life easier. Whether it’s just relocating a bracket or […]
I could use a trip to Iceland. Or to Brazil. Or Italy or Japan. Thailand is about to start getting into tourist season in a few months — that would be nice. I’ve seen the Instagram posts and hear the stories of friends or family who seem to be making these sorts of trips all […]
After dabbling in commercial and recreational drone photography for the past 4 years, I think DJI has finally found the “sweet spot”. As an early adopter, I’ve gone through the DJI Phantom phase and am well into the Mavic phase. The Phantom was stable, easy to fly and took great pictures and video. But was […]
An almost-perfect backpack often would be perfect with an additional small pouch for storage and organization. A cavernous main pouch in a pack is great – if you actually need it. When you don’t but instead want compartmentalized storage for smaller items, a water-repellent organization pouch from Magpul is a great option. The Magpul DAKA […]
Water bottles have become a daily sidekick for people on the go. Wether you’re headed to a morning workout, the office or a hike in the woods, most likely, a water bottle will be a necessary item. With so many high quality water bottles available, it becomes difficult to differentiate the choices. A quick search […]
We are a tribe of travelers. As a child in a military family, we were constantly on the move. And always had to travel to visit our stationary relatives. This mobile theme has carried on to my family as well. My oldest son was flying the friendly skies at the ripe age of 5 weeks […]
