    Yep the BondStrike projectiles are available now but spendy $190/100. I guess not that different to Bergers now a days, :oh noes:

    Moa Hunter liked post by Stocky On thread : Bivvy bags vs bivvy tents
    I almost exclusively use a tarp and Bivvy bag when solo. Doesn't save much weight vs my tent (a cuben fibre thing). But can setup anywhere i can lie down. Just a tarp i find is a bit average if it...

    I'm actually moderately antisocial - I don't really like people that much, so no - don't think that's something I'd do. I spent 3 months trapping on my own up behind the Cobb Dam in the seventies...
