Lessons from Lake Miers: Part I

When you get dropped off at a remote tent camp and your meticulously packed toolbag fails to make the trip, you can accomplish almost everything you need to do with your trusty leatherman and a piece of rope.

However, a leatherman is not, and will never be, a bung wrench.

For that you need a (broken) cargo strap, a tent peg, and a little ingenuity. Thanks Kyle. Maybe I brought the right guy to the field after all (see post: Kyle repairing his water bottle).
