Re the straps digging in. Maybe you could add some padding? Easy enough t do

Yeah I have thought about that, may get round to it at some point! It is surprisingly comfortable though considering.
Re compass: I have several simple compass's that I use but I don't go anywhere that I need them that often so I left it out :) Going to get myself a nice one at some point though!

Yet another question.
Do you rough filter water prior to boiling? If so do you use a millbank or are you going more traditional and using a bandana?

To be honest I've only recently become aware of the millbank bags, but I don't think I'll bother with one as a bandanna has been perfectly fine up till now and allot smaller than a millbank bag!

Looks beautiful, but I imagine that it's a pain to dry out if it gets wet at all!
Thank for posting that up

I haven't used it all in the rain yet, but yeah I can imagine! aha. That's one of the reason's I'm going to be using some more modern equipment in the winter. It's just more comfortable when the weather is harsh.
