    i went through sere and we had a 4 day lesson in the woods that went over land nav. i need to brush up on it but i don't know where to get the maps i need.

    the way i was trained, the nailed dog tags to random trees on the mountain and gave us the coordinates. we had to find the coordinates on our map, get to the tree and report back what letter/numbers were on the dog tag. i thought it was a very effective way to learn. i picked it up pretty quick but haven't done it since.

    Not too bad.. I'll have to give that a shot. If I was using it for anything rigorous, I'd just buy another Maxpedition, but it's just going to carry clothes, toiletries, and just random nic-nac necessities that you always kick yourself for not grabbing.

    I've got 4. I beat the living hell out of them and I have yet to have any issues. They're currently covered in white sand and mud and the zippers good, no leaking, absolutely no frays, etc. I treat them all with Camp Dry for that extra precaution.. haha

    It has multiple uses. We've used these at night to ID targets, each other, and range distances. I just ordered a few Amber ones to match the Tacoma interior lights for the center console and wherever else I can think to put them.

    You can re-stick it, but probably not a lot. Check out this video from ITS for an example of how they perform and look.
