We are mixing it up this weekend with some topics that go beyond your standard hunting and fishing fare.

Brandy Lamb with Mountain House tells the story of this Oregon company which has been making freeze-dried food for the military, for backpackers and for emergency preparedness purposes for over 40 years. Brandy will also introduce two tasty new Tex-Mex offerings hitting the store shelves right now. Speaking of emergencies, do you own a firearm you can use for home defense? Do you want to know the pros and cons of the different firearms used for this purpose. Adam Bryce with Gunrunner Arms weighs in with some great input on this subject. Finally, we'll tell you about a total solar eclipse viewable from select locations in Oregon, Idaho and Wyoming. Chris Havel and the staff with Oregon State Parks have discovered that their parks have become very, very popular places for sun watchers to reserve for this once in a lifetime event! http://www.northwesternoutdoors.com/
