    Default Worst Thing Pulled Out of Pack?

    What's the worst thing you've seen someone pull out their pack?

    - Boa Constrictor?

    - Machete?

    - An Original Pawleys Island Rope Hammock?

    - Copy of "Walk in the Woods"?

    - Small Squirrel Monkey?


    There's gotta be a million more.............

    This wasn't me, but a friend of my brother's pulled out a 5 lb. rock at the end of the day after his "friends" snuck it in his pack earlier in the day.

    Approach Trail. Boy Scouts, thankfully many years ago.
    6 bricks
    to hold his grill
    and a small bag of charcoal.
    The boy was 10. and suffering on the old Approach!

    I was backpacking with a lady who hiked for 8 miles carrying a log from the grocery store you know the ones that are wrapped in paper you get the fire started quickly they are huge and heavy because she thought we would not be able to fine fire wood in the woods. She really thought she was doing us all a favor and by the way there was a ton of firewood available. I still laugh at this.

    On my thru hike about 3 years ago there were two girls who i kept crossing paths with and they with them for several hundred miles alteast, multiple stuffed animals, and a large container of glitter. I remember reading a shelter journal they left one rainy day said something like "rainy nasty day today looks like were gonna need a lot of glitter!" Ill say this tho those two girls consistantly put in some long miles.

    Sounds like an episode of "Grandma Gatewood meets Project Runway" on Bravo!

    One dude was on a 2 week hike, and pulled out a tub of butter and a bottle of garlic wine he made... those were just 2 of the plethora of food stuffs, but the most memorable.

    When I was a scout, a thousand years ago, I remember the Assistant Scoutmasters son always had a giant perfectly rectangular pack that looked like an ad from "Boys Life" magazine. His dad had built a plywood box with a hinged lid that fit inside his pack. All of his stuff was then stored in little compartments within the box. I have no idea where Paul is now, but I do know he cried a lot back then.
