This thing is really light. Was going to fab one up, but can't really beat it for the time and effort.

Doggone good
The "dog bone" toggle is awesome. This is a great addition to my bear hang kit. This makes it simple to hang the bag with no fuss. This is especially nice after a long day of hiking and having one less thing to worry about.
