The Tough-Grid 550 lb and Tough-Grid 750 lb paracords are my go-to paracords for all my packs. I usually carry a minimum of 100 ft of the 550 lb, and at least 20 ft of the 750 lb. I have use the 550 lb paracord to make a paracord bracelet, a pace counter for navigation and orienteering, as well as used it in adventure and survival situations. I won’t go with just any other paracord anymore for survival tasks.
A paracord is a paracord, so most people think, but I love Tough-Grid for many reasons. I have really stressed these, and it breaks beyond the 550 lb test, though I would say 550lbs is guaranteed by the company. I usually carry a minimum 100 feet of Tough-Grid paracord for every occasion.
It’s amazing how many people I know go on hikes and only have water, wallet, cell phone, car keys, and maybe a snack. I usually carry a full pack of items, enough to survive for a few days while I am signaling or attempt to make contact to be exfiltrated out if I am injured. I don’t get lost, but even if that happens, what I have in my pack will get me back out.
