$4.10 on ebay for just the bag (no shoulder strap). AWESOME, we got 3 of these for a 9-man squad, and in addition to 10 C's (with bic + plastic fresnel, and 50' paracord), fits whistle (20 cent aluminum), "emergency OTC pharma" in a clear plastic baggy, and things like machetes are carried by our 2 scouts (with smaller 32oz water...they keep it LIGHT:and are pair to 2 of the guys who carry these 3 water + "camping accessories" (small shit that's nice to not be a "group kit" so we can split into three fireteams of 3 men each OR 5 + 4 fireteams (with Squadleader choosing which squad he'll escort, so each squad has a GROUP SHARED "oh fuck" amount of SMALL, LIGH camping-emergency EXTRA survival stuff + BIG waterbottle so they're not always going to our guy who pushes an old bicycle with 50lbs of gear (way easier to ROLL it than to CARRY it, and ya STAY LIGHT / FAST if enemy contact is made.), with rarely-needed spares (like a spare BOLT and "drop-in trigger" if someone cracks theirs, gets a pebble stuck in the trigger parts while shooting prone-position, overheats or ruins a firing-pin or cam-pin in the middle of a fire-fight just replace the WHOLE bolt and worry which part overheated or jammed up LATER), plus *_some "luxury camping / morale & barter" items + FOOD + GALLONS of water on the bike. You don't RIDE the bike, just walk next to it like it's a "pack animal": The SECOND AR308 gunner (or anyone with lightly injured leg(s) ) can REST his upper-body weight on the bike-handles as he pushes/rolls it,_* and since he's toward the rear of the stack/other formation, he can just toss the bike someplace concealed for later retrieval, as he or Squad Leader decides where it's best to position his heavier firepower. The "small EMERGENCY camping /light bare-basics" in this type of bag means we don't put ALL our "eggs in one basket".
* also 45gal 2mil bag, instead of tarps; we keep tarps in that "main" kit. And small wrench/lock-picks + pliers-multi-tool + Sawyerµn-sieves, and only 48oz water...to make space for the other items.
I'm disappointed. I just got the Pathfinder Bottle Bag just to find out it was made in China. I not only paid 30 for the UPS service, but I paid an extra 100 dollars for 'custom taxes', I live in Chinada (former Canada). My order was for 250 aprox and I paid 130 for the delivery (including the tariffs because all of the products were made in China). If you see Dave, please tell him this is sooo wrong, not only for the store, his reputation, but for USA.
Lol I can’t believe you used the word bannock. I’ve never heard anyone from the states use that word before. I’m from Canada and I guess I thought it was more commonly used up this way. Most people I’ve heard mention it from the states have called it fry bread. Anyways awesome video there corporal. They always get me in the mood to go through my gear and make it more manageable. Have a great day bud. Love the little bush craft tips you always got.
Thank you for teaching me about the 10C. And I tried it behind the house , and everything you was talking about is TRUE , and work out great ; but it was a little colder at night so I had to get some wool blankets out the house. And I move the fire around the blankets and everything worked great. I live in city (Baltimore , Maryland ) and teaching my grandchildren a new way of live. They close down the boys club, and the recreation center, where I learnt from to be a boy scout.But now it's so much crazy people out there,who can you trust with your children. I respect and trust you corporate corner be safe. And have a blessed day .
Great information and presentation! My two cents... The bottle bag has external webbing; which means the preferred 5", fixed blade cutting tool, could be attached to the outside.
My set up which I purchased yrs ago from Pathfinder has two sleeves in back of bag for fixed blades. I have a folding blade in bag and fixed on hip. If I didn’t want fixed on hip, I could put it in back of bag and it would fit perfectly.
Y'know that tingly somatic feeling when you get excited about doing something?? I get that from your videos. I was raised in the East Coast and recently moved to Colorado. I never went camping/hiking as a kid, and I've always wanted to go. You make learning things about survival and wildcrafting look super easy and fun. Maybe I'll start trying some stuff a little away from home!
I am enjoying watching your clips on what to pack in different types of conditions. Trying to build my own a little at a time. I'll keep watching to get more information and ideas
Great idea. My mind is already thinking, empty water bottle, put a water filter in it, a signal mirror and whistle would be good additional items as well. Now I'll have one more stuffed small survival bag that never gets used, there's got to be a point where redundancy meets excessive. Or, is that obsessive/compulsive? Maybe hoarding is more to the point. At any rate, it's gotta be a disease of some kind.
I know this is an old video but, I wanted to mention that I liked it overall. Lots of good info in this. I can see that there are things that I need to ad to my canteen kit. Mine is the smaller one by Condor. It's designed for the 40oz Kleen Kanteen. Which is something I was wondering about with your kit. Just think of all the room you would have in that larger bag if you used a 40oz Kleen Kanteen instead. Small IFAK maybe? That beefier tarp you were talking about. More food as well.
Wowwww!!!!! All that in that small easy to carry package!!! Idk what to say other then OUTSTANDING!!!!!! Thank you Corp. Kelly for all you do, I hope Utube pulls the stick outt their butt soon and notifications start again!!! Best of luck to you and little(medium)getting bigger everyday dude!!!
I’ve been using a similar setup for years. Way better than the stupid canteen and cup setup they issued us back in the day 😂 I added a Molly dump pouch that folds up. I always keep it empty, real useful when you want to take off layers, find something you want to carry like berries, or whatever you might scavenge. I don’t keep a tarp in mine though, I prefer the oversized military ponchos. Love your vids, rah.
Greetings amigo. I'm an old former navy destroyer man but served in a special warfare unit for a couple of years back in the '70s. I would like to see a video of the super solar still (not the regular solar still) if possible. Much higher water output, as in enough to live on perhaps, and not much more trouble to fashion. It seems not too many people are even aware of this tool for survival. Thanks. Informative as always.
I've got all of ur videos on a playlist of it's own and refer to them frequently. I have used many of ur setups and techniques/gear on many outings , ur videos are very informative and spot-on. Keep'em coming...great knowledge.
Great video as usual. But I'm wondering if attatching that tarp to the outside somehow wouldn't be better for accessing the water bottle on a regular basis. May incrporate it into the strap like you did the bandana? In any case, nice work devil dog!
CPL Kelly, a couple things to add, by adding an MRE-First Strike all day meal tan TRASH bag around your bottle and tarp wrap, it slides down easy ( kind of like when we were kids and mom put baggies on so our boot go on easy), it also seals at the top in case your cap is loose, you save any spilled water. Add a LID to that cup and store in the zippered cap, I added a piece of elastic to the zippered cap so the cup lid stays put. I also have the bottle stove, when in the plastic bag and at the bottom of the bottle, it slides down easy.
Your videos are bad ass! I have learned so much from watching them (as well as others). I have a waterproof lighter case so it doesn’t get wet and more important so the button doesn’t snag on something and all the gas releases rendering it useless. Definitely gonna check out that carrier! As always thanks for the content!
As someone who has gone through the Pathfinder School’s Basic and Intermediate courses, I have to say, this load out is about as close to perfect as you can get while carrying minimal gear. This is a brilliant idea and this kit should be in everyone’s vehicle for an emergency.
I subscribed halfway through as the advice was practical and nonsense. The answer to your question is no, I believe anyone planning to survive is to train to carry what you need. Personally I'd substitute the wood around which your cord is wrapped with a piece of fat wood so I always have tinder, take away the fork and add purification tablets for water on the move this is just my preference and in no way a criticism. Excellent video, thank you.
Based on this video, I picked up some of the Kodiak Power Cake mix for making bannock. I used a cast iron skillet and a bit of olive oil to "fry" it, and ...WOW! They are really good!!! I just used 1/2 cup of mix and about 1/3 cup water for a denser bread/biscuit like texture and smooshed it nice and flat after I flipped it. It went great with my chicken & rice soup for lunch. These would really be outstanding when in the field. Carbs, lots of protein, and a good amount of fiber, too. OUTSTANDING!!!
Always use precooked Maize flour...PAN to make arepas, this is my h easier then bannock. And have these things always in a old plastic bottle...never get wet and don't spill.
Well corporal this old sergeant major is mighty impressed only thing I do differently is I carry more on the man ( on my person) fair winds and following seas.
Your confusing yourself for a Master Gunnery Sergeant. We all know Sergeant Majors don't carry there own gear. I've waited my whole life to say that. ..lol.
@@Devil0983 Master Gunnery Sergeant would use it as a training moment, dress you out with his gear, and then have you carry it and re-equip just like he had it "for training". Sergeant Major would just have all his gear in a big sea bag, find a sturdy Marine and tell him to hump it for him. Either way, no one would complain. I humped the pack of a CWO5 during a long night move, no complaints. Those guys are legends.
Maybe add a spare bic lighter attached to paracord connected to a roll of chapstick with a cotton ball & petroleum jelly in the cap and then add gaffers or gorilla tape around each. Adding a small zip tie around the button of the bic lighter prevents your lighter from losing its fuel and can be removed and replaced once zipped, clipping the extra length makes it a little sharp though can be filed to prevent cuts. Plus the adhesive sticker is also flammable, once you have a empty lighter, if the wheel is removed slowly the springs can be made into a snare & fishing hook and the childproof metal can be removed and can also be made into a fishing hook.
It would be helpful if when you do a “kit” video that there is a link that is a one stop shop to get everything in the kit. Not a must but as a helpful service for watching the video..
The end question is exactly why I pack 40-50lbs of gear for a single day hike. "What if we get stuck out here and have to survive, yall will be glad I lugged 1/3 my bodyweight all day" is what i tell my group. When in reality we could just scream for help at any given moment.
Really really nice idea with the bandannas. Like it and will be using that. I'd probably strap the tarp on the outside molle webbing with a couple of straps myself as lack of quick access to the water bottle would drive me nuts. Though it was another impressive trick to pack it all in this super small all in kit.
By FAR, one of the best videos I have see yet. I loved the fact that this was NOT just another demo video of a product but a video that in my opinion Trained you on what to bring on your first outing and Why you should bring it. Once you got used to doing that I'm sure you would always make sure to have those 10 basic survival items. Then I began to appreciate the product that carried all of those items and then some.There was not one item that wasn't necessary nor would i skimp on any one item. Thank you for this video and I look forward to viewing others.
Buttons and drain grommet are already rusted off on my bottle bags. After the first year. Thought they were brass...nope. My Mora Bushcraft Black w/ Sheath fits in mine... I bought two of these with both bottle kits & stoves.
Superb! Thank you for showing us how to put square pegs in a round hole and make everything fit! A question, however. Considering that your knife has a ring on it (I think it did) why wouldn't you want to place it on the outside of the pack so it could be more readily accessible, such as for defense or cutting off thin branches if in the way or for other use?
Been viewing your videos for 7 or 8 months and subbed after the first viewing. This is one of your best in terms of useful information. You put out some very practical information, and I find your product recommendations to be well considered. Keep up the " outstanding " work.
Yet another great video! I really enjoyed this and plan on duplicating something like this for my local vehicle emergency kit! One thing I'm sorta confused with...why didn't you use the container to store other items that you might need (i.e.; nature bars, protein bars, fire starters, extra cordage, etc...)? Did I miss something or??? Otherwise an excellent kit and I really enjoyed ANOTHER of your videos!
This was a really good video brother. Though not in the army anymore, I am seriously trying to put together a compact system that I can move out with if needed. I liked this video very much.
Greetings. This is a great example of a minimalist kit that could be carried anywhere. One question I have is, Did you consider using the container itself for additional storage ? If so, what items would you place inside your container for said storage? Thanks Rick
Stumbled on this video looking for lightweight packing ideas for motorcycle camping. Well done. Another great feature of the MC3 compass, it is gimbled so it will also work south of the equator. I also carry Bic lighters in my 24 hour bug out bag, but I don't expect them to work every time. Cold temps, gas leaks, or they get broken. Like your video, I back it up with a ferro rod.
absolutely awesome Corporal! I'm pretty sure the wife is getting me this for CHRISTMAS... I will be using your method with this bag for sure! thanks for sharing and great video as always!
I know it's probably insanely simple, but if one of these videos could include a quick demo on how you made the duct tape holder for those needles on your trekker, that would make me feel better about doing that myself. it really is I great way to store needles! I copied your 5c'S shelter kit besides the Trekker cuz I still need to get it but that is going to be my hiking folder for sure.
You also forgot that different people are willing to spend different amounts of money. 24.95 isnt bad a bad price for what you get. Some people are looking for Items like this. Obviously you are not, why not just move on ?
@@joshl90 The biggest knock on pathfinders "american business" front is if you look at where they produce their stuff in china which by all means if you want stuff to be affordable to cut price you need to produce elsewhere still is kind of an issue when you pair QC into the other problems that come up. Note maxpedition makes a better quality water bottle holder imo its double stiched its 1000d cordura and it has ykk zippers + pulls for it and in many cases their stuff is made in taiwan on the inverse...so i'd pay the extra for maxpeditions instead.
I don’t need a compass because I’m never far from car. I rule is, this isn’t for me to stray from from what /where I know. I bag is for that. City/ woods but no more the 50 ft from base camp.

OUTSTANDING! I would add a Sawyer filter straw and maybe a few purification tabs into the SS tapered bottle. Otherwise, Perfect
All these years later I still go back to vids like this to reference. Awesome content man
I have two bags similar to this on the outside of my get home bag. For the stick inside your bank line, you could use a flat hunk of fatwood.
Or I use Walmart cards or anything, card wise.
Great information and presentation! My two cents... The bottle bag has external webbing; which means the preferred 5", fixed blade cutting tool, could be attached to the outside.
And it should be!

New sub, look forward to watching your older content. Not sure why I hadn't found you before!
thank you for the sub. Now share the tribal knowledge
Yep, I'm a new subscriber too.
Excellent video.
Extremely clever and resourceful
Really liked the tip with the bandanas in the shoulder strap
👍
I crammed a USGI poncho in the bottom of mine. Works all the same. Turns out to be a nice kit I can either pack or carry when foraging. Good to go!
Y'know that tingly somatic feeling when you get excited about doing something?? I get that from your videos. I was raised in the East Coast and recently moved to Colorado.

I've found that I can slide a heavy duty Mora into the molly webbing.This gives you a fixed blade knife.
This is
A way to get my family started and also keep inside our vehicles.
I am enjoying watching your clips on what to pack in different types of conditions. Trying to build my own a little at a time. I'll keep watching to get more information and ideas
I have a lot of catching up to do. This kit in it's original form is on sale for a meer $54 on the site. So glad to have found the channel. TY
That was creative AF. Well done Pathfinder team
Great idea. My mind is already thinking, empty water bottle, put a water filter in it, a signal mirror and whistle would be good additional items as well. Now I'll have one more stuffed small survival bag that never gets used, there's got to be a point where redundancy meets excessive. Or, is that obsessive/compulsive? Maybe hoarding is more to the point. At any rate, it's gotta be a disease of some kind.
Another OUTSTANDING video Corporal! Very informative and well presented. Thank you.
I know this is an old video but, I wanted to mention that I liked it overall. Lots of good info in this. I can see that there are things that I need to ad to my canteen kit. Mine is the smaller one by Condor. It's designed for the 40oz Kleen Kanteen. Which is something I was wondering about with your kit. Just think of all the room you would have in that larger bag if you used a 40oz Kleen Kanteen instead. Small IFAK maybe? That beefier tarp you were talking about. More food as well.

Greetings amigo. I'm an old former navy destroyer man but served in a special warfare unit for a couple of years back in the '70s. I would like to see a video of the super solar still (not the regular solar still) if possible. Much higher water output, as in enough to live on perhaps, and not much more trouble to fashion.

Good video as usual brother. Thank you for doing what you do.
Well said!!
Your videos are bad ass! I have learned so much from watching them (as well as others). I have a waterproof lighter case so it doesn’t get wet and more important so the button doesn’t snag on something and all the gas releases rendering it useless. Definitely gonna check out that carrier!

Just re watched this vid and it stands the test of time , it's still outstanding !!

Looking at mine right now. Mine is set up differently but still rocking the ✋🏾🤚🏾 C’s.
I subscribed halfway through as the advice was practical and nonsense. The answer to your question is no, I believe anyone planning to survive is to train to carry what you need. Personally I'd substitute the wood around which your cord is wrapped with a piece of fat wood so I always have tinder, take away the fork and add purification tablets for water on the move this is just my preference and in no way a criticism. Excellent video, thank you.
Based on this video, I picked up some of the Kodiak Power Cake mix for making bannock. I used a cast iron skillet and a bit of olive oil to "fry" it, and ...WOW! They are really good!!! I just used 1/2 cup of mix and about 1/3 cup water for a denser bread/biscuit like texture and smooshed it nice and flat after I flipped it. It went great with my chicken & rice soup for lunch. These would really be outstanding when in the field. Carbs, lots of protein, and a good amount of fiber, too. OUTSTANDING!!!
Always use precooked Maize flour...PAN to make arepas, this is my h easier then bannock. And have these things always in a old plastic bottle...never get wet and don't spill.
Good amount of fiber?? Oh great... now I have to look forward to avoiding piles of bannock poop along the trail!! lol
Jumbo try cane rat stew or ox tail soup.
Always outstanding AF content. Thank you!
Corporal, All your videos are well thought out and well put together. Outstanding job. Hooah!
Absolutely amazing kit you put together! Thanks for sharing...
I didn't think you would get all that in but you did.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻✊✊👍
You can't got wrong with those Walmart tarps, and I really like those tins at the bottom of the water bottle great idea!!
Hardcore dude!! Great video!! No bullshit and straight to the point!! Corporal to Corporal, SEMPER FIDELIS!!!
Well corporal this old sergeant major is mighty impressed only thing I do differently is I carry more on the man ( on my person) fair winds and following seas.
Your confusing yourself for a Master Gunnery Sergeant. We all know Sergeant Majors don't carry there own gear. I've waited my whole life to say that. ..lol.
@@Devil0983 Bah ha ha ha ha ha...... No Offense to the Sgt Maj, but that's funny as hell.....

A very clever kit. With the mollie webbing, you can add a pouch or two to hold a few more items if you ever have a need to.
Maybe add a spare bic lighter attached to paracord connected to a roll of chapstick with a cotton ball & petroleum jelly in the cap and then add gaffers or gorilla tape around each. Adding a small zip tie around the button of the bic lighter prevents your lighter from losing its fuel and can be removed and replaced once zipped, clipping the extra length makes it a little sharp though can be filed to prevent cuts.

Outstanding Corporal. Instructional, practical use with mil-bro-mindset.
A few ranger bands would make wrapping the canteen up in the canvas easier and I'm sure they would come In handy for other things.
I go into Walmart in the clearance and buy bicycle tudes and cut my own ranger bands and I use them to wrap everything that needs it.
I randomly stumbled on your videos and have been binge watching them. You’re amazing! I need to practice.
Great review! You know, you could conceivably replace the little bit of wood under the bank line with fat wood. Just a thought.
It would be helpful if when you do a “kit” video that there is a link that is a one stop shop to get everything in the kit. Not a must but as a helpful service for watching the video..
Good info with a bandana tip at the end. I'm adding ...Always carry water purificatin tablets.
Very nice. Thank you for sharing
Corporal's Corner, The 11th and 12th item in my basic kit. Thanks buddy, keep up the outstanding work.
thanks for watching. More to come
thanks for the share! I just found my new bag!
Hi Corporal. I loved this video. I was looking for ideas for my car kit, and this is it!!! Thank you!

I'd probably strap the tarp on the outside molle webbing with a couple of straps myself as lack of quick access to the water bottle would drive me nuts. Though it was another impressive trick to pack it all in this super small all in kit.
Thank you very much for sharing your expert skills with us👍💫 Greetings from Germany😉
By FAR, one of the best videos I have see yet. I loved the fact that this was NOT just another demo video of a product but a video that in my opinion Trained you on what to bring on your first outing and Why you should bring it.

Great video as always Cpl. a extra small pouch for compass protection would be a worthy addition I think
I've watched a couple of your vids and one can always tell a 'been there, done that' person. Semper Fi.
Buttons and drain grommet are already rusted off on my bottle bags.
After the first year.
Thought they were brass...nope.
My Mora Bushcraft Black w/ Sheath fits in mine...
I bought two of these with both bottle kits & stoves.
Very good summary of the 10 C 's. I personnaly prefer a little 22 liters daypack to carry but the video was great...thank's
Have you considered "going ahead" and magnetising your needles to allow for compass redundancy?
Just carry two compasses.
Several great ideas for improving my bottle bag. Really good video!
Love the new size
Outstanding Corporal! Now back in line!
Superb! Thank you for showing us how to put square pegs in a round hole and make everything fit! A question, however. Considering that your knife has a ring on it (I think it did) why wouldn't you want to place it on the outside of the pack so it could be more readily accessible, such as for defense or cutting off thin branches if in the way or for other use?
I learn something everytime i watch your channel...Thanks 👍
From one old corporal to another: Outstanding, brother! I just subscribed!
Just came across this video, time has not diminished the value of this kit and it is still a great concept video.
Been viewing your videos for 7 or 8 months and subbed after the first viewing. This is one of your best in terms of useful information. You put out some very practical information, and I find your product recommendations to be well considered. Keep up the " outstanding " work.
Good idea with the wood in the bank line, just use fat wood instead of regular wood.
OUTSTANDING...!
the wood for your bankline can also be a piece of fatwood..brilliant my friend!!!!
Nice job great bag
That was awesome. Can you do the canteen kit next? Much larger "pack" for the canteen.
Thanks.
Yet another great video! I really enjoyed this and plan on duplicating something like this for my local vehicle emergency kit! One thing I'm sorta confused with...why didn't you use the container to store other items that you might need (i.e.; nature bars, protein bars, fire starters, extra cordage, etc...)? Did I miss something or??? Otherwise an excellent kit and I really enjoyed ANOTHER of your videos!
the water container would be full of water at all times, never count on "I will just fill it when something happens"..........
Thanks share idea on best use of bottle bag!
pack light and freeze all night....like your teachings
The only suggestion I have is to use fatwood to wrap your bank line around and to include some easy tinder in your pouch.
As always... Well explained and illustrated.... Thank you sir.
This was a really good video brother. Though not in the army anymore, I am seriously trying to put together a compact system that I can move out with if needed. I liked this video very much.
I just ordered my set. To add to my bugout bag.
I think this is one of the best kits yet.
Greetings. This is a great example of a minimalist kit that could be carried anywhere. One question I have is, Did you consider using the container itself for additional storage ? If so, what items would you place inside your container for said storage?
Thanks
Rick
You're too cool! I just learned a lot!!!!
Beautiful review, and storage idea's for a excellent hiking bag! Thank you for sharing.
That was awesome thanks
Stumbled on this video looking for lightweight packing ideas for motorcycle camping. Well done. Another great feature of the MC3 compass, it is gimbled so it will also work south of the equator. I also carry Bic lighters in my 24 hour bug out bag, but I don't expect them to work every time. Cold temps, gas leaks, or they get broken. Like your video, I back it up with a ferro rod.
absolutely awesome Corporal! I'm pretty sure the wife is getting me this for CHRISTMAS... I will be using your method with this bag for sure! thanks for sharing and great video as always!
I know it's probably insanely simple, but if one of these videos could include a quick demo on how you made the duct tape holder for those needles on your trekker, that would make me feel better about doing that myself. it really is I great way to store needles! I copied your 5c'S shelter kit besides the Trekker cuz I still need to get it but that is going to be my hiking folder for sure.
God bless you thank you for sharing 🙏✝⛪
Excellent video.
That tarp looks like it'd be a royal pain in the ass to get the water bottle in and out of the case every time you want a drink.
Great review, and ideas! I have always been accused of carrying to much, but better safe than sorry in my book. Thanks for sharing, God bless
If anyone ever teased me about packing to much I'd put a 5lb rock in there backpack when they weren't looking.
Woohoo! Thanks!
Man I love your videos buddy! Some much info, Keep them coming👍👍 Thanks
You forgot about the 11th "C" which is cost and that is why I don't use Pathfinder stuff.
You also forgot that different people are willing to spend different amounts of money. 24.95 isnt bad a bad price for what you get. Some people are looking for Items like this.
Obviously you are not, why not just move on ?
Larry Kramer you’ll spend more by replacing products that fail you. Buy things once and support American businesses
@@joshl90 The biggest knock on pathfinders "american business" front is if you look at where they produce their stuff in china which by all means if you want stuff to be affordable to cut price you need to produce elsewhere still is kind of an issue when you pair QC into the other problems that come up. Note maxpedition makes a better quality water bottle holder imo its double stiched its 1000d cordura and it has ykk zippers + pulls for it and in many cases their stuff is made in taiwan on the inverse...so i'd pay the extra for maxpeditions instead.
Another one in the books for you!
I like that he didn’t say “and put the bottle and tarp in” then edit to the end, he was genuine in showing the struggle to put the bottle in.
Excellent job packing your kit especially liked the way you stowed the bandanas.
I don’t need a compass because I’m never far from car. I rule is, this isn’t for me to stray from from what
/where I know. I bag is for that. City/ woods but no more the 50 ft from base camp.
Still watching in 2019
on the bank line could you use fatwood instead of just regular wood or would it not work the same?
I was thinking the same thing. Ready tinder in a useful form.
Super vid. Lots of detail packed into a few minutes. Always pick up something new on your videos. Thx for sharing.
