If bears ever get YouTube we’re doomed.

Kevin, you explained the PCT method in a way that is understandable and accessible. I like that you not only took the time to explain what PCT stands for, but also fully explained each step of the process, including how to take the bag back down in the morning. All other videos I watched leave out this last step! Your video stands out from those others as a shining example of how to teach new backpackers how to camp safely. I'm downloading your video to my phone for offline use and I hit subscribe to your channel because I like how you explain things "like I'm 5." lol Thanks and cheers!

Man.. my eyesight is really getting bad..
I first read your video title as "PCP Method..." and I rubbed my eyes..
Second time I read "PCT Method, How to Hang a Bear." I rubbed my eyes again..
Third time I read something about how to hang a bean bag and it sounded interesting, so here I am. :)

Thank you! Going to do this on an upcoming Colorado, solo, camping trip. Will be taking many dehydrated recipes I've made of yours. Don't want them getting my delicious meals. Lol!
