The NEW Post Your Campsite/gear/knife/hiking/anything Outdoorsy Pic Thread!

^^^ Thank you! The Coyote is a very nice little EDC - very maneuverable in hand, and the D2 on these is amazing. ^^^
 
Did some more work out at the shelter today. Added a rain cover/canopy:







It also doubles as a door when down:



Putting it up and down is made easier by the use of toggles and loops (instead of knots):

Wow! combatjuijitsu! Breathtaking!

I wish I knew where some of those were taken, especially the ones with the snow on the mountains. Colorado? Idaho? I don't recognize the mountain peaks.

Great pics, folks! :thumbup:

Spent yesterday afternoon helping a friend who is a biologist for IDF&G with setting up a wolverine trap (so they can put a radio collar on it, and set it free again).

On the way in:

The trap. They haven't baited the actual trap yet, but they are "pre-baiting" right now to draw wolverines into the area, and watch for sign. Ifd you look closely, you can see a deer leg wired to the trap above the door:

The trap will eventually have bait inside of it, on a wire connected to the big swing arm you see above the trap, which will slam the door closed.

Even so, there is often not a long window of time before a wolverine will chew/claw it's way out. I've seen some pics of traps that they have escaped from, and it looks like someone tossed a grenade into the trap.

Hopefully, we'll get a call to help out when they actually trap one...
