Second year on the Lacrosse 1000g boots, anything higher in g's and they get too warm for me. I've rotated between Itasca, Muck, and Lacrosse and always seem to return to Lacrosse. When they wear out for me it's usually where the toes flex.
I'm entering my property into CAUV, slightly different than OFTL. Had a private forester, who's done a number of local properties, perform an assessment and he's currently writing the management plan. Cost $700 but will save me $1500 a year.
