    Question DIY water bottle attachment on ULA Catalyst

    I also have a ULA Catalyst and the water bottles fall off the (shoulder strap) bottle holsters on downhills. This is the only niggle I have with this otherwise well-designed, rugged, yet lightweight pack.

    I see the water bottle on the hip belt around 5:50. Would you post a close up of that custom attachment? Perhaps with a DIY explanation?

    Much obliged, Shug.

    When I get home to my "Man-Shed" in a week I will do that.
    Basically it is a water bottle holder that I just sewed a nylon loop/strap onto to slip over the hipbelt. That is it!!!!
    Remind me in a week if you need.

    Great video! I really enjoy watching your vids and get a kick out of your viewpoint on things. Thanks for sharing with us!
    This evening I was showing my wife info on all the hammocks I'm considering for purchase as my first camping hammock, and we ended up watching several of your vids. She really enjoyed them, and ended with "He's a silly man, isn't he?"

    Again, thanks for sharing!

    re undershield, I have a nanatuk (modified down) uq, rather than a separate undershield, I sewed a very light weight cuben .33 oz/yd sheet to the underside of the uq (about a 2/3 uq) so no separate set up, gnome
