I don’t bushcraft, but I watch your videos to help me prepare for my car and bike camping trips. Mostly for my bike camping trips, but for car camping it helps me prepare for the unexpected. Served me well over the years.
Nice kit! Interestingly the whole year of 1968 in Nam I never saw the US 66 Hammock. Could be cause I was USMC. BUT... I did have a captured NVA hammock and made rope by braiding supply pallet twine (paracord was nonexistent also) paired with my poncho, the old rubberized kind. Slept many a night out of the mud and loved it!!!
I’m very glad you’re successful Dave with your classes and business. The education you’ve taught is priceless in my opinion and I just wanted to say thank you. Cheers from WI
Thanks. I still love my old school two pole pup tent.
Been killing it lately with the video’s lately really enjoying the content would like to see an update on your ham radio setups or some other ham related content just got my ticket and basing my set up on yours would like to see what your doing now. keep it up man
Thank you
I just love Dave Canterbury. I hope I get to meet you amazing bushcrafters someday for a class.
Nice video Dave ! As an emergency shelter I carry a bivvy bag, and a down jacket.
Good to let taller people know that about the military issue hammock. I've unluckily know that being I was issued one back in 80s. It worked somewhat for me then, being I had not finished "growing" yet. Now at 6'1 not quite comfortable enough now. Good video still, for over a month I've been using a hammock, though. A under quilt and over quilt made it quite comfortable in last weeks of winter in N. AL.
You are doing great Dave. We know you are a busy man. Thanks for providing us with good ideas with your progressive research. I am already thinking about adding a hammock to my tarp system in my Get Home Bag. It just makes sense to have more options.
What's in the black bag!?
I want to know too!!
Simple and effective. Salute to you Dave 🦅🇺🇸
Horace Kephart mentioned!
I have used that same setup on both multi day backpacking trips and month long canoe trips...I run my m66 through a snugpac jungle sleeping bag...if its very buggy i use a head net
I used a jungle hammock and poncho (with a bug net) for a long time quite successfully. The climate didn't need insulation for the hammock so it packed down to a compact size. Also used it as a hoochie set up when needed and joined muliple poncos together on bivouacs. Easy, sensible system. Cheers Dave.
I feel so validated! Back in the day when you did a video on making a hammock from a tarp, and then showed how the same tarp could make a ground shelter that convinced me to assemble a kit just as you have shown, with a surplus backpack, and military poncho with liner. I since added a blow up cheapie ground pad that I use instead of a quilt for winter shelter, either on the ground or aloft in the hammock. I added a bigger tarp to make more options for heavy wind and rain as either a fly, a wind break, or a ground shelter. The fly that came with my hammock, I keep as an additional precaution in heavy wind and cold. Bit could also protect my wood for fire, or someone else who needed it. Loaded with a camel back, a wine box liner and my sawyer filter I would have nearly a gallon of water I could carry, plus clothes, firekit and first aid. I bought a belly pack to use for EDC that straps under the pack in the back and gives me quick access to knife, phone, navigation, notebook pencil and some simple field first aid items. I have yet to trick out my tie kit like you have , but i have some bones I will use for toggles reserved. Thank you for your wisdom and ability to flex with a less expensive experience for us newbees!
Thanks Dave! Appreciate you getting to the point, clearly explained. Bang bang bang bang lesson over.
Always a great teacher on different ideas on how to get gear and how to use them
Awesome video Dave. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing this kit you're working on! I have a lot of surplus gear and they last a while as long as you take care of them, but that goes without saying. Keep up the great content, man!!
Great video. I really like the toggle idea & the simplicity & functionality of your designs. I'm a huge fan of surplus military gear . Sad to see many of the surplus military stores in my home area closing for good. Theret still are some good online military shops for good gear at decent prices . Thank you Dave.
Woodland camo 2 day assault pack, those things are unobtainium
I've always wanted one of those systems, but until this video I didn't realize that being 6'5" was going to make it unusable. Thanks for the insight
Always something, hadn't thought about having cutlery with the canteen / cup cook set.
Thanks Dave
Dave, you’re new ridge line adjustments are “creating a new mouse trap!” They are innovative and smart. Even if they’re not yours, your providing information and technical information. One is none… Skillet
Versatile concept. I like it. Thanks for the video and for sharing.
Hey Dave started watching this video yesterday and my Internet went down. First world problems 😂.
You are a real problem solver, i appreciate that. I suspect tent poles in the black bag. I wish someone would make some to erect an alpha tent from a poncho. Titanium and 12-14" segments would be super sexy.
Another awesome video Dave. Thanks for sharing 👍
Its a simple hammock...used it up in the nacel from the windturbines on the North sea. ...loved it..was my to go spot for relaxing and Netflix 😎🇳🇱
Good system. I opted for a similar emergency shelter, except mine has a bugnet and is a tent and / or hammock. The rainfly I opted for a large, enough to actually cover the hammock.
I opted for this system instead of my instatent tent. I found it more comfortable carrying this system.
Dave is the modern-day Nessmuk.
I think a drip line off the hammok to the ground might be useful in the rain.
Great video brothr! im a fairly new stealth camper & needed to know this! i just subscribed! God bless
Dave voce e realmente incrivel, voce e o melhor. 👍👍👍
Is South Georgia, the ground tends to be damp near any body of water. Used this a lot. Gets you off the ground. And then there are the water moccasins. A little bit of mosquito netting, and you are good to go.
Cool setup. I'd rather have it in all or mostly bright orange though if it's an emergency kit
Advanced common sense with lots of experience 😁🤠
Its interesting to see that the average height of a N. Vietnamese soldier translated into the dimensions of their gear. Would love to see this recreated in a size comfortable enough to sleep somebody like myself. I'm 6 ft tall and always preferred tarps and hammocks to tents.
😊Thanks Dave, looks very good😊
This is awesome 😎 I’m 5’4 and about 170lbs. This would be perfect for someone my size 😁 especially for a multi-day camping trip
Great video always looking for a shelter system i can shove in a pack as a just in case
Are you kidding that's my sleep system every time I go camping, except I don't have the Swagman roll and I really do wish I could afford it that would cut down on some of the other stuff that I carry but I'm still going to carry my wool blanket. You got some excellent equipment for sale that I really just wish that I could afford to get that compact equipment that you have but I'll have to do with what I've got that I put together over the years. Thanks for showing other people about that actually thanks for showing me too. I saw your little dog in the background and she's hanging next to you excellent little dog
you can buy the materials, apex insulation and a few yards of nylon cloth, to make a knockoff version of a swagman roll for yourself for less than 50$ if you can swing that, it's not a difficult project on a sewing machine (which can be found cheap at thrift stores), or you can hand sew it but that will take some time (not as much as you'd think though, as climashield doesn't require quilting)
Excellent idea. I need to try this out soon.
Got mine earlier today and set it up as you posted! Perfect timing! Thank you!
Any chance Helikon will make extended sizes for those of us that are well over 6ft?
Check out Wilderness Innovations Personal Survival Shelter (combination poncho hammock). Comes in multiple lengths, widths, and material weight. I'm 5'11", 200#, and used it exclusively on an 8 week trip the length of the Sierra. Worked like a champ. 👍👍
Maybe you could fix the bugs and offer it for sale?
Thank you brother ❤
This is one of my go-to favorites
Great video, really appreciate your content.
Greatings from Portugal 🇵🇹
Ok, what's in the black bag? My guess is tent poles to make an alpha tent with the poncho. Not sure why you couldn't say that.
I love these segments that demonstrate your expertise.
atchya dave, thanks mate
M81 Assault packs are salty these days. Good looking kit
Thank you for your continuing ideas.
More info on the use of the delgrin toggle, ty dave
great video sir !!!
Good video, Thank you
Just love it when the mosquitos bite my ass through the hammock at night😂
Permethrin that sucker ...
Pre spray and dry with permethrin spray
I believe you said the toggles are "delrin toggles." I'm not seeing those in your store links. Can you send a link or add them to your store? Thx!
Awesome
! Gracias mi jefe por este buen vid! Reminds me INDIRECTLY of an angry cow moose treeing a friend of mine OVERNIGHT! Hammocking is an essential option to have in hand for getting off the ground (how high can an sleepy Airborne Ranger fall out of a hammock and still operate?). What about good ways to comfortably TIE YOUSELF 20 feet above the ground TO ABIG TREE, out of reach long term of mad moose and most grizzlies? I have some ideas using nylon GI belts. What have we learned from how snipers, especially enemies, have traditionally secured themselves up in trees? I am sure I should have researched TH-cam on the subject, and shall proceed thusly forthwith. Is that a Black Lab mix on scene? Is it hammock-buddy trained? Might be possible..
Good ideas but where I live no trees for the Hammock, just lots of Sand and Cactus.
Haven't seen a poncho that new in like ever 😂😂😂
Helikon sells em brand new every day
Looks effective. I don't care for hammocks and in my mind they are more of a luxury for people who think they are comfortable. I don't. I also can't imagine sleeping in a hammock in a combat zone. Talk about a sitting duck.
Great videos. Thanks
This would be great if caught in a rainstorm and you wanted to wait it out. I think as a shelter i would use it as a ground sheet over a debris bed, cause as a hammock you'll freeze your tush off.
You could tie a shelter half to the outside of the pack.
Whats the best surplus poncho
It's not as durable but I think the thru-hiking gear community would have a lot to offer to the preparedness community.
I use quite a bit of UL stuff teaching in the summer
What kind of toggles did you use for this video?
the piece on your ridge line that you attached the fly to keep it separated from the hammock, does that piece have name and can they be purchased separately.
Great Video Dave...better than all those cooking videos
what's in the baaagg?
I read that in my head like a distraught Brad Pitt.
Prototype stuff
I had a hammock with bug fly and a matching tarp. I have rls (restless leg syndrome) so I can’t get a relaxing sleep in a hammock. Sucks because they take no space compared to a tent
GREAT pack out and video Dave!!
Excellent video!
Looking forward to where this concept may lead...

I envy folks who have the capability for hammock camping. If I'm out and about in the backcountry locally, chances are that there is *one* big tree, two trees not within ridgeline range of each other, or else trees so big around that the amount of cordage required is impractical. All smaller trees are in and around creeks, and ephemeral streams are not safe for use for that for SO many reasons. We're bound to what can be rigged with cordage and trekking poles around here.
Cowabunga mate.!
Thanks, Dave
cant find those toggles
Awesome thank you for sharing brother
What diameter delrin would you recommend Dave?
1/2”
Your killing me Dave with the smart tie out!👍🏽
You are the Grand Poo-Bah!
I only watch this and corporalscorner
Informative and beneficial video!👍
Us MOLLE 2?
Good stuff
good stuff
I like this sleep system kit. I'm 6'1" but sleep on my side in fetal position, (due to being struck from behind on a bicycle at 45-50mph) could that work? I wonder. Great review, thx for sharing. ⚡👍⚡
I'm a side or stomach sleeper and have never been able to sleep comfortably in a hammock.
@@meganlalli5450 I am not sure if you tried, but you need a really big hammock. One that is at least 11ft long and ~56in wide. I sleep in mine every night. Most nights its on my back, but occasionally sleep on my side. Make sure you get one with a ridgeline or you install yourself that keeps the hammock body at a 30degree angle. The ridgeline should be 83% of the length of the hammock. In cultures like Brazil, where sleeping every night in a hammock is common, this is the setup they use.
Hope it helps someone.
Gypsy! more!!
👍👍👍
What in the black bag?
Is it a take-down rifle for varmint hunting?
Prototype stuff
😉 I trust a Survival guy who wears shoes....👟👟
Someone needs to invent a shelter that folds up made from that plastic cardboard stuff they use for political signs.
Thanks Dave
