Agreed, I took mine through some rocky beach cliffs I had to climb through on some travels as well as through airports as a carry on. No problems at all and the material and stitching seemed great.
Yeah, I just realized that they did have some rip stop in production in the later years of the war. After some additional research. Thanks for adding to the conversation
Whole sardines in Extra Virgin Olive Oil don't have to be refrigerated and each can is a negotiable instrument. Just pour off the oil, pour in hot sauce and you've got 3 grams of Omega-3s very high protein source. In hard times drink the oil, it's great for your skin.
Thanks for adding the tip and adding to the discussion. Your tip definitely has one over mine since it does not require refrigeration or freezing. Hopefully it won’t come down to not having those options.
Your reply made my day, lol. Yeah, you can put it with anything. With my new revolutionary system you are able to pair proteins with anything you want. Joking about it being a new system of course. I’m sure this might not be news to some but for me I just discovered how awesome this is. Thanks for your comment.
Iam so disgusted with the prices of fast food that i have boycotted most of the places we used to go to. We hardly dont even go out to eat and cook alot more at home. anyway our food cooked at home tastes alot better..
Agreed, I also definitely feel a lot better after eating my own food. And I can get more done around the house when I don’t have to wait at a restaurant for my food.
I don’t like to think of it as food prepping. I just make sure to always have a variety of meat available to do anything with. I feel like meal prepping would be preparing specific meals. It has been working for me so far. Thanks for adding to the topic. It brings up a good question on how to define doing this.
Anyone that still eats McDonald's garbage food is out of touch. It's shameful that people still support this treasonist international company that funds many slavery and genocidal agendas.
Why is everyone I talk to including family acting like nothing abnormal is happening, that struggle is not going to happen, that things will just ebb and flow like before? They assume it will ebb and flow like from 90's to 2007, and from 2009 to 2019.
I’m starting to fear that those were times of exceptional prosperity that I should have enjoyed more while they were there. Seemed easy to take it for granted at the time. A time where I I could eat off a dollar menu for a couple of bucks. I used to be able to go out and see a movie and go to arcades like Dave and Buster, several times a week and still save a good amount of money. All I’m doing now is buying groceries and trying to save money. I used to go shopping just for fun, now I’ don’t even want to go in a store, even a grocery store. Now it’s like $100 just to buy enough for a couple meals at the grocery store, condiments that used to be .99 are now 3.99. It’s not just you. Thanks for adding to the discussion.
I’ve actually felt more energetic since staying away from fast food by always having smoked chicken and beef available. Thanks for your feedback and adding to the conversation.
These "tactical" backpacks are for weekend warriors. They are light duty. I bought one from discount clothing store named Marshalls (for $30). The pack is made of Polyester. Decent fabric but it's not Cordura or ballistic nylon. Zippers are not even YKK. shoulder straps are short as if it was made for a kid. I knew this was kind of a joke Tactical backpack but I bought it anyway and I knew what I was buying and don't plan to use it for anything else but hiking. You get what you pay for!
Thanks for sharing that bit of knowledge. I have to look up how to read those codes. I stumbled across it at a goodwill. Used to see these things at thrift shops all the time. But your right, they are rare now. It’s quite the find if you find one.
@@thecompletegeneral8224 I traveled with it in January. I watched a video a while back with another reviewer who pointed out the supports which made me question wether I should leave them in but I figured with so many people who travel I’m sure it would be fine. They aren’t sharp or heavy so I surmised that they would not be questioned. However I recently upgraded to a different bag for travel but will utilize the old one for backpacking.
I have to say I don't know how long it will hold up but I was pleasantly surprised how nice this was. The plastic clips clip on securely but I am not so sure how long they will continue to do so and I think I would be careful clipping them in really cold weather. My main issue was that when setting it up for the first time the adjustible slats on the stove side were so tight that they tore the plastic on the rounded bars that they clipped onto when I unclipped to take it down. I had to remove the plastic from the round pieces. It wasn't that big of a deal but didn't like it. Next, I had a little trouble using a propane stove and a 1 lb propane tank. Maybe it can just dangle over the right side but I don't like that there was no support. I would have liked it if the lantern holder could have been switched and mounted on the exact other diagnal side so that you could put the table on the right side and the grill on the left side and then rest your 1 lb propane tank on the table, or if the table area could be just snapped on the right side without having the lantern holder interfere with it because the table edge extends out too far. And that lantern holder seemed a little flimsey to begin with. One other thought that would have put this camp kitchen over the top would be that it would have been nice if I wanted to use the whole top area as a table and that an additional table piece could have been included or available for additional purchase that snapped onto the stove side instead of the stove support. Maybe it could have been marketed as a table with the additional stove supports if one chose to go that route Anyway, it is pretty nice for what it is, compact and lite adn functional. My setup is this table with a triton stove on the right side with a hose and a 5 lb prpane tank in a bucket secured to the leg for added weight, OR a 20 lb propane tank in a plastic crate stored as well. Not using those single-use propane tanks and this negates the need to support the 1 lb tank. Could also leave the lantern support off and position the propane tank crate next to back rear leg and attach and use my propane tree for a prone lantern and the stove and position my Weber Q and stand on the right. But again, if I was bringing my Camp Chef explorer this would have been great as just a table to position near it. Maybe I will fabricate something to extend the table area to the right.
Thanks for sharing your setup and feedback. I just used this for a second time recently and I remember being able to rest the propane tank on the table to the right of the camp grill? I have to go back and review my video footage. You might be able to put the table part on either side. I’ll try to look into it the next time I pull it out
Funny you said that. I have another system that’s working fine and is tuned into the security system. The ones that chirp often are actually hard wired into the house and came with the house. I keep going through 9v batteries like crazy. A battery change only remedies it temporarily. Funny how it’s hardwired into the house but still chirps for batteries. I’d love a resolution from anyone reading this, if you know of one.
@thecompletegeneral8224 Battery might be a back up if power is out. Check smoke detector date on it as I believe they only have a 10yr life span. So if older it should be replaced. I'm no expert or fire department lol... just someone who works for Home Depot and knows a little bit
@@thecompletegeneral8224 try replacing it maybe defective some where.very easy to do it's only two wires just turn off the power and the panel too it so you don't shock yourself.
I have one. I planned on using it for section hiking the AT. I consider the Savotta sleeping pad a higher quality sleeping pad than the typical foam sleeping pads that fold. I have hiked with it attached to the outside of my pack. Due to its length, while not overwhelming, it can get hung up on tree branches. Nothing bad, just something I noticed. I am also experimenting with a product called Smartshield. It is a waterproof foam insulated pad. Not advertised as a sleeping pad. But, it can be. This foam pad reflects heat. It does just that. Not sure of its comfort yet. Just another thought. Savotta also makes a high quality backpack. I tried it. Except, when the pack was heavy, at 30 pounds plus, I could not figure out how to get the weight off my shoulders and place it at my hips. Too bad. I wanted it to work. Thanks for the info. Best wishes.
Quite a score of you got this free. I think I spent quite a bit. I don’t remember what I paid but I do know It wasn’t cheap at all. Where did you find a free bin?
It was sturdy for me, but a tip I have is to get a plastic crate (preferably black for aesthetics) and keep a 20 lb propane tank in it with a hose hookup for your favorite propane stove such as my Coleman Triton and then attach it with cordage to the table to give some stability and additional weight.
Had the bag. Great quality. With 25 pounds and a 6 mile hike, no complaints. With 35 pounds and a 6 mile hike, nothing but pain in the shoulders. I tried adjustments. Nothing changed. Based on other reviews, I thought the pack would be comfortable. I am in good shape. Yet, I was disappointed in myself and the pack. I had to return the pack.
I never had my hands on a savotta pack but I reckon one size fits all does indeed not fit everybody. I would like to try one but that's the reason I never bought one because returning a bag that was out in the wild is pretty much impossible where I live.
@@DerUnbbekante It seems only the XL pack was adjustable for torso height. The pack was had such incredibly high quality. Perhaps the pack will get an upgrade for fit in the future. Be well!
@@1024Pete The L is somewhat adjustable torso height wise. The waist belt is attached on 2 PALS row, and this can be moved up and down to adjust a couple centimeters. This can be seen in Savotta's video about adjusting the pack : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QqUJg9lJvS4.html Cheers
Savotta packs are great quality, but the problem is, they do not have functional load lifting straps. The lack of load lifters is the reason for the pain under heavy load; weight of the pack isn't being transferred off the shoulders and on to the belt/hips.
