    Outstanding series Shug! Really like that TRL with toggles. That's got to be about as easy as it gets. Thanks for producing these videos. Very informative and entertaining.

    lol, nice vid shug! Likin' gangsta shug! Never thought about ridgeline under the tarp for snow pileup, good idea. Will do in the future. Its really nice with toggles, you can do it either way. BTW with the opie setup, can you slide the tarp around on the line like you can with teedee's/my setup?

    Sometimes I like to hike and think, And sometimes I just like to hike.

    Hiking is'ent about waiting for the storm to pass its about learning to hike in the rain.

    very nice shug! I know all that's involved when you're director/producer/actor/cameraman/best-boy for an effort like that in the woods....those close in shots take time to get centered, etc. Hours of shooting time for minutes of video.

    A lot work and love going into these, we can see. Thankee.

    Good work Shug...

    Just want to clarify... The bead in the loop is so the toggle doesnt come off the end. Theres no chance of suckback in a fixed eye, just an adjustable one. The chances of the toggle making it to the fixed eye, i.e. getting past the bury and then the brummel are slim, but I didnt want to take any chances.

    Thanks again Shug. Nothing like a Shug vid with the morning 'cuppa-Joe'.
    .....and yes I peed first!

    Are the figure 9 teeth deleterious to the line at all?
