ReplyDeletegives lots of ideas Dave....thanks
ReplyDeleteHi Dave, I'm a huge fan/supporter of yours...literally.... I stand 6'8" tall, and I'm having difficulty finding a way to carry my oversized Czech Military sleep system shelter element efficiently in my Alice Pack frame setup. It takes up most of the entire pack when put inside, vertically or horizontally... and when attached to the bottom on the outside it is simply too bulky and interferes with cadence. I know that sleeping is one of the most important aspects of bushcraft, and I'd like to know your thoughts in general on the Czech surplus sleeping bags. I saw your D-ring picture concept and I'm wondering what you recommend...should I switch to a more traditional wool blanket bedroll situation? Or try to find a quality M.S.S. with a dry bag that compresses better to allow for more compact gear space? Or is the Alice Pack the wrong type of setup for giants to begin with?
ReplyDeleteThank you for your inspiration, I love my Pocket Hunter and Bush knife I recently purchased from the Pathfinder store. Looking forward to new videos, the weaving series is awesome, and vital. -Mike Chappelle, Virginia
Not sure what the weather is like where you are in a hard winter, the MMS is the best bet for really cold below "0" weather, but wool will keep you warm above that with the right camp setup easy enough, have you tried a hammock and tarp with a single heavy bag and under-quilt?
DeleteThanks for your reply Dave, the winters out here near Colonial Williamsburg are generally mild, it seldom goes below zero. So I have been getting away with a foam ground pad and the MMS system for now, carrying it efficiently with room for the other C's of survivability are my main concerns. Just feels like I'm doing something wrong by having it take up 90% of the inside of the pack.
DeleteI haven't tried a hammock yet but that is a great idea as the wet ground conditions are usually a hassle out this way..humid summers and rapid changing jet stream cold wet winter conditions. I think I will get a Pathfinder Duluth pack eventually, and switch to 100% wool as per your videos either way. Army surplus gear has way too many pockets for my liking, but I do like the ALICE straps, they are very versatile. Thanks for taking the time to reply to my message! Hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Mike
