    MR have just been bought by Yeti. A new range of packs and frames are being introduced. There will likely be good deals on the current packs to move them on. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Barry the hunter liked post by Dicko On thread : Fallow and Red deer summer rainy day behaviour
    I think the big decider is what's happen with the wind when it's raining. Cold southerly or warmer northerly/westerly and how hard it's blowing.
