a few things about ranger beads. You might want to do an little more explaining on how to use like pace varies due to pack weight, terrain as i would assume most civilians don' t know this. Snow and mud also affects ones pace. May want to go into drift and how to set ones pack up to compensate for someone who has a left or right drift.
also make sure your viewers know not to completely rely on them. I personally don' t utilize ranger beads. I know how far i can travel in a given time and terrain dependent. Although i don' t use them i don' t discount them for others. I have spent many hours under a pack doing land navigation. It is a parish able skill.
maybe you guys can do a video on terrain association and other orienteering kills. Or as us military folks call it land navigation.
just to make sure i am in no saying or trying to knock the video or the use of ranger beads. I just think imho that maybe you guys can do a little more in depth video to help your more unskilled viewers. Knowledge is power. Rangers lead the way!
