What I appreciate about this channel is that it's just content. No whining and complaining about KZbin algorithm, no shaming of the subscribers for not doing more. Just good solid content which can be put to use in the field. Thank you, Dave, for this approach.

I know that my FB page was hacked and I know that FB is working on it. I’m just not the kind of guy who whines about everything that happens to me. It will be fixed in time and there is nothing more o can do that be patient. Thanks for supporting me I do appreciate it.

I already have my RDRL all set up with toggles and prusik loops. So this is getting put in the mental tool box. It's not like I use my ridgeline all that often. So the wear is minimal. I appreciate all of you at the Pathfinder company. I had a set of micarta handles come loose on my PKS Survival knife that I bought on January 1st 2020. Mind you, I use it constantly. It's on my belt every day. And some of it is tough work. I didn't get it to baby it. But you guys said send it in and you'll fix it. Not only did the handle get fixed, the edge was touched up, and the spine was back to a crisp 90 degrees. You have a customer for life for sure. I already have 37 orders since September 6th 2015. And I'm far from done. Thank you for all you do.

Interesting experiment. I love it. Of course I see know reason to use both prusik, or bowline. But I do like the replacement of the truckers hitch. Will try.

This is a good way. But I still like the way you guys shown me in 2020. When I came to the Pathfinder basic survival class. like to be able to move the bank line up and down the ridgeline. I have that option of moving my shelter if need be. By the way Matt and Dave hope life is treating you guys great. Hope your families are well. Maybe I'll see you again.

I like the new concept and will give it a fair shake. But, I'll probably stick with the old system.... probably! The way I have the tarp set up I can pull it and be under it in less than 60 sec. We'll see. Good job as always.
