Review on Stay Protected in the Wilderness with 'Don't Die Woods Extension Extra Thick' by Kevin Singleton

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Can be improved, more than expected

This is supposed to be for emergencies so I haven't used it yet. I bought it to take with me on ultra runs/minimalist backpacking trips. I envisioned it alongside an all-purpose bag that was half the price. It's much smaller but only 9 grams lighter. The Don't die in the Woods outer bag weighed 5 grams, the rope was regular rope. The standard bag weighed 7 grams and used a 550 cable. Universal (only 20 minutes but better than nothing). There is room for improvement. For an ultra-lightweight survival bag, use 550 stitch line and a smaller plastic mount, and maybe add a whistle. If these changes were made I would give 5 stars. For almost $20 you should get more.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • No machine gun
