That cat is famous for the appearances while Dave is trying to cook for us on his videos.

Great video, direct and to the point with good explanations. This instructor has a good way about him, does not come across as "boot camp" as some of the other instructors, would make the learning process more enjoyable.

Thanks! Great video and the perfect go-to video for a basic night roughing it in the woods gear list.

Equipment lists are never a bad thing to make mental notes of. They will change from situation to situation and what you need in your personal scenario. We can always count on the Pathfinder instructors to give us info and instruction on what it takes to keep ourselves alive.

Great review, definitely just follow the packing list.

Excellent content Jake! Great explanation of what to bring and why.

Gosh darn do I love the new scout pack color. The original coyote is nice, but that deep maroon-brown is next level.

Greetings, Jake. I stumbled upon some of your videos earlier this year. I was left wondering who you were because of your knowledge. Then I found out that you were with the Pathfinder School! All the best from the Caribbean 🌴

Hey Jake, great informative video!Quick question. I'm 6'6" and too close to 300 lbs. The 5x7 blanket is a bit tight on coverage, so I purchased the the Bushcraft Spain Nesmuck Shelter for my near fire, lean to and plow point set ups. I believe it's 6'6"x 8'2" (don't quote me on that). Would that shelter be allowed? Or is the class pretty adamant on the the reflective 5x7 rescue blanket?

A 4 lb milsurp wool blanket only suffices down to 40F, guys. Two of them MIGHT suffice to 30F. The 1.5 lb bivy and 6 oz plastic envelope around the bivy, up in a 1 lb net hammock, will handle 40F with ease. With a couple of 1/2 lb each Amazon "cut leaf' type of camo nets and a couple of their 1/4 lb each bugnet "suits', you can handle 30F, wearing them as longjohns. Then youll have a way to hide yourself and your stuff and yourself and protection from bugs. You can also add 10F degrees of warmth by stuffing dry debris between the bugnet suits and under the wraps of the camo nets. The camo nets can block the sun or the wind and if pitched at a sharp angle will shed rain. They will break up the noise of rain drops hitting the bivy, too.

"Half bag of smalls, go" 😂😂😂 hated those damn garbage bags

I use both a buttpack and a daypack. I empty them out, fill them with debris and use them as sleeping pads, normally up in the hammock. I had to fit a much wider and stiffer belt to the buttpack, tho. My spare T shirt and spare boxer shorts form my hip pads and my spare socks form my shoulder pads. I can wear the sleep/shelter gear as clothing if need-be. None of this gear is affected by its getting wet and its all useful in hot weather, too. I lash the gear and any unused clothing to the top of the buttpack and the daypack rides on the gear. In this way, the gear is serving as a pack frame, transferring most of the weight of the day pack to my hips.

Hi Jake I'm looking forward to learning from your videos. We were sent to you by the influencer.

[FernandoRodríguez-hl]

Great video! just one question why do you suggest not coated blade? best regards

[olumsezbey]

On the prescription meds. Should we bring them in their original bottles, or can we use a pill case for the class?
