And they are on sale.

That’s the main reason I included them. Plus, froggtogg offers first time users of their site an additional 15%. I ordered those grand refuge 3.0 today for $180 shipped to me.

Evening, gents.

I just got back into duck hunting this year after not having been in the last 5 years. My 17 year old pair of cabelas neoprene waders developed a small leak in the boot (boots starting to dry rot), around the ankle of all places and I’m looking to replace them. I’m not rough on waders, but I’d like to buy a cheap(er) pair since it sounds like most of the brands leak soon enough. Any thoughts on Roger’s (tough man 2n1 breathable) vs. Frog Toggs (grand refuge) vs. Tidewe (aquawade)? All are currently on sale and similarly priced. Mainly hunting buckbrush and cypress sloughs.

That’s right. Closing in May I believe. I saw that about it currently being closed, but I’m hoping they have the water issue resolved by mid March.

Challenging, especially since we are doing both in the same week. I'm at work and don't have my itinerary in front of me, but driving up from MS. My son likes geography and points of interest, so we will hit Lake Itasca and the source of the MS river. We will also drive up to Angle Inlet, MN (even though its way out of the way) so he can visit the northernmost point in the contiguous US. Then we will spend a couple of days at Voyaguers, but mainly checking it off the list. I would like to have more time and rent a houseboat here, but not in the cards this trip. After leaving Voyaguers we will drive to Copper Harbor, MI to catch a ferry to Rock Harbor, Isle Royale. Staying in the lodge a couple of nights before coming back. The ferry vs. the seaplane was a big decision for us. I prefer the seaplane, but I've read several stories about people being stuck on Isle Royale when the weather didn't cooperate for the seaplane. The ferry schedules don't give you a ton of time on the island unless you stay a couple of nights or more.

When you visited Big Bend did you happen to visit Boquillas? We are staying at Chisos mtn lodge in March. Aside from the rim trail that you mentioned earlier, any suggestions for hikes in Big Bend?

If you aren't scared of heights, even if you are, you should do the bridge walk in NRG. Very unique.

During really cold weather I cover mine. I’m trashy (actually I live where nobody can see my house) and I use foam board insulation cut to correct size, but I’m sure there is something more decorative. I do know they make vents that will automatically close once the temp dips below a certain number, mid 40s it seems? Definitely remove during warm weather to have airflow and prevent moisture buildup.
