Mark Harris's coffee table book Rodeo
Nebraska chronicles Mark's travels
across the state – 82 events in 62 separate
locations – in search of everything rodeo. And while Mark's photos are the main
feature in this 240-page publication, his words are the real star here, guiding
the reader into the rodeo world that is so important to so many Nebraskans.

While my colleague Eric Fowler promoted STABILicers Maxx ice
cleats in our November edition, I'm fonder of a little more aggressive ice
fishing option – the Hillsound Trail Crampon Ultra. Slipping is not an option
in these strap-on versions, and they give me something I've never had before
when walking on slick ice – peace of mind. Hillsound.com.
I quickly became a fan of Wood n' Stream boots a little more than a year
ago when I started wearing them quail hunting. Then I began wearing them
fishing, then bow hunting and now working around the house. With their
durability and comfort, they've become my go-to boot for all situations.
And now I'm introducing their line of odor-control boots, including a 2,040
gram Thinsulate model, that will be just as important during muzzleloader
season as my rifle itself. See their complete line at Weinbrennerusa.com.
Timex's Expedition Sierra Rugged Field
Chrono watch has a traditional look that
allows me to wear it either in the woods
or at a dinner party. Stylish and rugged, the
watch is shock resistant, water resistant up
to 100 meters and features a night-light. See
their complete line of watches, including the
Expedition Grid Shock model, at Timex.com.
With wall and car chargers in every direction, I
never would have fathomed any sustained use for
the myCharge All Terrain portable unit for my cell
phone and iPad. Boy, was I wrong. Compatible
with both iPhone and Android devices, this charger
has become my go-to on frosty mornings in the
deer stand when my phone drains quicker than I
need it to.
