I have an aliengear IWB holster. It’s very comfortable.

No doubt that it is worth a read,but little else.

Madison also posted a follow up to this ^^ It's really all pretty basic stuff: 1) One does not need to buy a test kit of any kind. All one needs is a water or soil sample, like perhaps soil scrapings from the bottom surface of a footprint cast. Collect water in a DNA-free container. Bleach destroys DNA. Any container and lid bathed in a 50/50 water/household bleach solution for one minute, then well rinsed with tap or distilled water and air dried will do. Same methodology for prepping a container for soil. 2) Any lab, University or otherwise. 3) Ask them to look for HUMAN DNA that has several, perhaps even numerous, anomalous mutations. 4) Cost varies, definitely cheaper at a university though. One avenue may be to ask if a lab would run any samples for you pro bono since your goal is to possibly achieve a major scientific discovery in the field of Primatology. 5) Should the testing show a positive result then make sure one gets a printed hardcopy of the report. The following is optional: One may also wish to provide a thumb drive to not only upload the report, but to upload the raw test result data as well. Especially if one's plan is to get the data reviewed by a third party like a genetics professor.

I got out for a few hours this afternoon to look for blacktails on a mountaintop clearcut about 40 minutes from home. The trip was uneventful, other than losing a centre cap off one of my wheels. I saw no game at all, and no droppings or tracks, either. Some of the highest local mountains got a few inches of snow on Friday night, as our months long drought finally broke, but the area where I went wasn't quite high enough. The only thing of interest I found was a parasail launch point, and shortly after I met one of the users, who lives at the base of the mountain, and can sail right down to his own yard! Those guys are crazy to jump off a mountainside over a forest of tall trees. :-0 The first 3 pics are looking WNW, NE, and ENE from the clearcut. The last 2 pics are the site of the parasail launch, looking ESE towards my home on the far centre of the horizon, and WSW.

I'm excited to head south and visit Skamania soon. Will be near some known hotspots and do some hiking and audio drops. It's the first opportunity I've had in a few years recording far from home.

Bill Munns? If so, betcha he might throw some light on the matter.
