Thread: Pre hunt stuff ups

About a month or so ago I set off after work for a quick fly camp overnighter on the Ruahine tops. First issue was the blisters that my not quite new boots gave me in the first hour of hiking. Cut that one off at the pass by going barefoot to the tops, which believe it or not was actually quite pleasant.... Issue two revealed itself at the top, when I found my 2litre water bottle had transferred 1.5litres into my sleeping bag. Not only was my down bag worth nothing to me, but I had only enough water to make dinner, and a quick splash to quench my thirst.

Never again will I trust a milk bottle lid!
