Paracord has hundreds of uses in the outdoors; I usually take at least 20 feet of it on a backpacking trip. String up a wash line. Tie off a tarp. String up a bear bag. Replace a broken shoelace. Guy out your tent. Strap things to your pack. Go fish. Paracord, some duct tape and a multi-tool will let you fix lots of stuff on the trail.
The paracord we sell is known as 550 Cord, a commercial Type III cord with a minimum break strength of 550 pounds. Has 7 inner strands that can be removed from the outer sheath for use in a variety of survival situations. Diameter: 5/32” (4 mm). Comes in a 50-foot pack. Colors we send may vary.
