    Snow chain recommendation?

    Another handy tip we picked up this year is to carry a couple good size rocks with you. Lay the chains out flat put your rock in the center and drive up onto the rock. Gets the wheel off the ground so you can wiggle and slide the chain around on the tire.

    Getting in sheep hunt shape?

    When I asked a seasoned buddy of mine what I should do to get into shape for some mountain hunting, his response was every day is leg day. That's all you have to rely on if you dont have a horse. Made sense and I haven't been able to prove him wrong. I haven't done nearly as much as most any one...
