    The ultralite is amazing! For me it was a big game changer! I got their largest size and it holds my medical gear, headlamp, pump, water filter and bag, tent stakes and trowel.

    Yes! I got one just like that! About that size, made from dyneema. Got it on Etsy. I love how it just opens up and you can see everything. I have a separate toiletries and first-aid bags that I keep separate. In my ditty bag I carry my power bank, wires, headlamp, wallet, repair kit, long spoon, extra lighter, fire starter. It’s the ideal style for a ditty bag.

    I love the rectangular shape. I have some Granite Gear ones that is a silnylon fabric that I use as packing cubes. I am looking for one stiffer, like the eco pack fabric for my first aid supplies for my ski patrol pack. I’m using the GG one and it’s ok but a bit floppy. I’m going to check them out, Thanks!

    I got the medium zip bag to hold my electronics, but it's too big, so I ordered a small. Trying to figure out exactly what I will use the medium for, but I like them and I'm sure I'll figure out some use for it.

    • @rungavagairun
      @rungavagairun Před 5 měsíci

      I've used the two zipper cubes I bought last year on a few trips now. I like them so much, I have started to use them for all travel, whether I'm staying at someone's house or a hotel or whatever. They are small and pack nice in corners and on the edges, they are so easy to get into and to find things in because they are shallow, and they are super light weight.
      I am now replacing all my roll top ditty bags with these. I ordered two more a week or so ago. I will say, they haven't shipped yet, which for stock items, I'm a little disappointed, but hopefully they will arrive before my next trip.

    I have the stuff you mentioned in my ditty bag that you have in yours (some of the items are stored elsewhere - 1st aid kit, fire starter, etc)
    1) Sea to Summit's Airlite Towel (md - 20"x39", packed size 2"x2.8") It's like a super absorbent eyeglass cloth. Wring it out and keep drying if you need to.
    2) Charger & cables
    3) Separate buff for sleeping
    What do you have for a hammock tarp so that if fits in that bag with the other items you listed?
