So cool. I remember hunting with my grandpa and dad when I was a kid. Now I'm the one taking my dad.

[@DuboisWyomingAirportConstructi]

Awesome! I still watch your dads videos often. They are VHS and starting to wear out. A couple are on DVD. I watched your dads film as he narrated it in the schools gym. Among my best memories.

[@SLOWELK307]

Mike you are my biggest influence for backpack hunting mule deer. Thankyou!

[@trophyquestoutdoors]

Times have sure changed… keep the stories coming… I enjoyed the old pictures too!!

[@elkhunter76]

Much respect for your Dad and you Mike. I worked with a surveyor that knew your Dad.

[@prestonjoy8092]

Thank you Sir... Your family's calling, is a Treasure to my soul.

[@rickhale6396]

All ways look forward to your stories of the past. Waiting for the next one. Thanks

[@perrymerkes7693]

I guess Ive been at it a while too, had to smile when I saw the old Svea stove . Still have it. It would wick the colman fuel up to the burner after you lighted a paste on fire. Now you fire up a jetboil and water is ready in 2 minutes...Great share , great memories, thanks.

Great video. A light pack certainly makes for a better hunt.

[@edwardh1591]

Enjoyed the story

[@donlampkins2915]

Love your Blazed trails video's , One of them I heard you say " Ass over tea kettle ", haven't heard that for a long time. My dad used to guide in the Wenaha in eastern Oregon in the 40's. Was not a wilderness at that time but no roads. Watched most all your Blazed trails series in one day ! Keep it up, Thanks !

[@Inlandprowash1]

great stories

[@BlazedTrailsForgotten]

Glad you like them!

[@beavercbearing4237]

Awesome story Mr Eastman. I really enjoy all of your legendary stories. Say are you going to be in Riverton Wy with guys late this month? It would be an honor to meet a legendary outdoorsman. Anyhow stay blessed and thank you for sharing.

I'm 69 years old and remember all that "high tech" gear very well. I froze my ars off many nights in one of those army surplus "down" mummy bags. The feathers would poke you and when you pulled them out I'm pretty sure they were chicken feathers not down. Green rubber insulated pac boots that would keep you dry and warm on the first day until they'd get damp from sweat on the inside and never dry out and your feet would get cold. Forest service wooden frame backpacks. 8-9 lb .hunting rifle. I don't miss that gear but I do miss the mule deer here in montana
