It Got Dangerous and I Had to Bail – Testing the Bothy Bag Emergency Shelter in an Ice Storm
In this episode of TOGR’s Lone Survivor Series, Luke is going to put the infamous Bothy Bag to the test in some truly nasty conditions; some love them, some absolutely hate them; let’s find out why that is.
Testing begins in a heavy rain but ends in an Ice Storm along with very strong winds and things go from Bad to Disaster in minutes.
Gear List for this Adventure :
After receiving countless messages from viewers about supporting the channel through Amazon, I have begun using Amazon Affiliate links in the Adventure Videos and if you choose to purchase one of these products via these links I will receive a small commission which will help fund future honest reviews and adventures.
The channel remains as it always was, 100% Agenda Free with no sponsored videos, no paid reviews, and I don’t care if you purchase these products or not; you won’t find affiliate links in review videos only in adventures.
I’m going to do my best to put gear lists into all of my videos since everyone is asking for them all the time.
For this trip, here are the big items that I used.
