Excellent tutorial. I like this system and am going to start using it after 40 years of doing it the traditional way. This ridgeline is much easier and faster. Thanks for sharing.
Well thank you very much. I've been using this system for a while now and it gets easier every time. Thanks for dropping by and leaving a comment.
That is so awesome. I put this video in favorites. I want my Grandson's to watch this. thank you so much Daniel for sharing this. take care
Well thank you Judy. Hope your grandson enjoys this video.
Hey Daniel. Dang this is a champ set up. I’ve watched too many variations and this is the boss. I have the scrap wood for toggles and the weather is nice tomorrow and I can’t wait to put it together. Beyond excellent means it’s simple, fast and not magical. ******* love your channel.
Thank you for your comment. I'm so glad you enjoy watching my content. I too think that my Ridgeline is a great setup. Simplicity works. Hope to see more of your comments on my channel. Take care.
great setup my friend
Thanks James.
I learned some great toggle ideas. Thank You.
Your very welcome Jeff, thanks for dropping by.
Great setup Daniel. My ridge line is similar…I have two prussik knots, 1 on each side the one side has a toggle…thanks for sharing. Have a blessed day. Take care. 🙏✨👋
Thanks Nikki. Sounds like you also have your Ridgeline well set up. Have yourself a wonderful weekend.
Thanks for sharing, nice setup of a ridge line.
Thank you John and your welcome.
Great step by step video.
Thanks John.
Very practical tips for lots of campers
Thanks.
Excellent step by step 👍🏻
Thanks
Very nice . Glade I ran across this video. What I love about bushcarft is how many ways there are to do something. There is no right and wrong it’s mostly what works best for me.
That all said I really like how you did this. I see myself copying many of your ways.
I really like the toggles. The more I see of them the more uses I can imagine. I wonder why we never used them in the boyscouts years ago. I remember making a safety line . We also used one in rangers for river crossings. It was basically a rope with a toggle on one end and a loop splice on the other. It was very useful but you don’t see it anymore.
Thank You very much Richard, I'm glad you dropped by and left a comment. And yes your right big time, there are so many ways to do something that will give you the same end results. What works best under your circumstances with the items that you are carrying at that time is what's important. In the early 70s I was in the Canadian Boy Scouts for one summer, it was interesting but I was a little older than most so I joined up with the Sea Cadets and stayed with them for 4 years, this was where I learned most of my knots. Forgot LOTS! LOL If you want to read a few good books that are a little out dated, look up {Scout Field Book Boy Scout of America and Handbook for Boys} two good Old Time books. A more modern one is from Mors Kochanski - Bushcraft outdoor skills and wilderness survival, excellent book. The term Bushcraft is new, but, back in the day we just called it like it was, fun in the woods. Richard I hope you drop by again, take care.
Gesh that tree good you checked. Great setup. Great video and information and instructions. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. God bless 🙏 stay safe hugs ❤️
Thanks for dropping by Susan. Yeah that tree was in bad shape. Had to come down.
@@danielcharbonneau222 yes . Was a great video my friend. 🙏❤️
Brother that was a great video . Great tips and show how it’s done awesome hope you are having a great weekend . Love the kit
Thanks Ron. So far it's nice warm weekend.
Great way to do the bowline
Thank you.
Good instructional video , thanks for sharing , God bless !
Thanks Michael. Have a great day my friend.
I'm going to copy this for this season's use. Thanks!
Right on! Your very welcome. Have fun out there.
instead of having thr first toggle on a prusik you can pass the ridge line through a hole inn the middle of the toggle just as on the other end. on the other end to prolong the life of your line replace the loop with a prusik loop
Very good. Well explained 😊
Thank You.
Slick 👍🏻
Thanks Matt
Nice setup & Great demo 👍 ☆☆☆☆☆ THANKS ...Alan in 🇨🇱
Thanks, and your very welcome. Glade you dropped in to leave a comment.
Nice demo. New sub here. I spotted your comment with Harshman Hills. I've been using a very similar set up since I started following Pathfinder.
Thanks. I'll head right over to your channel and give you a Sub also.
Excellent !! H.
Thanks
That's a neat system. I use a variation on Derek Hansen's quick ridgeline setup, with a carabiner on the bowline end and the other end free. I have a separate 6" piece joining one of those loop alien things to a carabiner. You pass the static bowline end around the tree and clip the carabiner onto the line. Then you go to the working end, pass the working end around the tree, clip the loose carabiner + loop alien thing onto the line, and pull a bight through the loop alien. The tarp ends clip onto those same two carabiners while the ridgeline is still slack, then you tension everything in one go using the loop alien. You can get the tarp really really tight that way. Derek's setup is a bit simpler and just uses a prussik on the adjustable end instead of the loop alien, but I found it hard to get enough tension when my hands were cold or wet. The main disadvantage is you need a bit more cordage because the line has to double back to the tarp ends, but it's pretty insignificant unless your trees are really far apart.
Thanks Luke! I'm going to search for his TH-cam video now and check it out. That does sound like a good solid setup. I knew I had one carabiner in my kit for a reason LOL Again thanks Luke, have yourself a good day.
That's a slick set up Mr.Daniel! I need to set up a new Ridgeland setup so if its go time and happens to be at a raining time of year I don't want to prolong the agony lol! Great catch on that tree before it took someone out! Anywho thanks for sharing your knowledge with everyone bruv and hope you and yours weekend is blessed! Cheers, Kimmers and Jerbs 👍🏼🇨🇦🔥🔪🔥🇨🇦👍🏼
Yes thanks my friend. That tree was tall, and what gave me the final info that I needed to cut it down was when I knocked on the trunk with the pommel of my knife. It had a loud hollow sound. yep had to come down. It sure was a good thing. Yes this type of Ridgeline is nice and quick to set up and take down. You don't want to be caught in the rain.
Very nice.
Thanks Alex
Hi there! Great video! Very helpful. Can you please tell me what type of wood you made your toggles with and the drill bit size? I will be using standard paracord. I could find tree limbs to use but prefer some kind of hardwood toggle I can sand and varnish. Hope to hear what you say. Thanks again!!
Thanks. As for the wood, it was a old wooden dowel from an antique chair that I scrapped. As for the drill bite size I believe it was 3/16" . Once the hole is made try your paracord to see if it move freely. Thanks for your comment.
Great job!
Thanks Aries.
Well done sir!
Thank You!
Wow nice video i really learned alot from it now i know how to make it and do it nice!👍
Thanks Fernandez. It does come in handy when you need cover quick.
Great video very well presented easy to follow you just earned yourself another subscriber
Thank you and welcome to my channel.
and you can save the loops on the tarp. if you make the toggle prrusiks on the ridgeline a little longer you can pass a bite on them through the ey n the tarp and hold it with the toggle
Yes you can with both of your comments. There are so many ways you can set up a Ridgeline, this was a quick look at one of my setups that I use. Thanks for both of your comments, it's well appreciated.
@@danielcharbonneau222 simple and less are usualy better
@@biranit50 Sometimes
Such a great video bruv!
Thanks Jerb's
Looks like we could use Lincoln Logs from our kid's toybox as toggles
Hahahaha, yes you can but pricey.
Great video! I was wondering do you sell quick deploy Ridgeline with toggles?
Thanks, but sorry I do not.
Stay on topic , I switched channels when you decided to talk about dead trees instead of tarp setups!
You are responsible for your own destiny. It's a good thing that you were able to moved on!
