Pony Tail Bands

[Jay Wilkerson]

Revisited:

The many uses of the Pony Tail Holders. They last a lot longer then rubber bands and come in colors so you don't loose them.

Yep, been stealing my wife's every since I got a job and a haircut. I use them to manage my cordage like you.

Though, I don't find it necessary to tie my shelter up. I usually roll it up and stuff it in my outter mesh pocket (it's a poncho trap though). I used to do my stakes like that, then I got worried about them poking stuff so now I have them in a tyvec envelope.

Good tip! They are definately more durable than rubber bands.

tyvec envelope for stake bag….i know where to get one of those for FREE….the post office priority mailing envelopes!

is that what you are using?

I've also used the stronger ones on shelter guy lines.

I grab one from my wife and daughters bathroom stash to secure my rolled up sleeping pad.

They have flat ones out now. I just saw one in the house. May be good for CCF pads because they won't roll.

I got my Tyvec envelope from Rob Kelly when I ordered my Ti scoop from him. I folded it in half long ways and taped it then cut open the short end. It has 2 long pockets. It fits my stakes and scoop and weighs 6 grams.

Good idea to use them as tarp tensioners.
