Whether you're concerned about hanging your backpacking food to keep it away from mice or bears, you'll need to weight the end of your line for that toss up through the branches. After years of trying to securely tie rocks to the sharp end, we started making experimental throw bags. The RockIt is the best one out there.

We start with rugged 300 denier, PU-coated diamond ripstop fabric, then finish every hem by securing the cut edge under a double-rolled edge. Mitered corners on the top flap create a passage and secure attachment for the line. The hook and loop closure keeps things closed whether in your pack or in the sky. We form pocket tucks on the bottom to form a three-dimensional shape that happily swallows the palm-sized weight of your choice. 45 feet of high-tech 250-pound sleeved Spectra cordage is good insurance for your food hang. Finished weight is 1.02 oz.
