    Default What kind of booze do you carry?

    for those of us that carry booze, what are some of the "campfire libations" you like to hike with. I typically like Jameson but sometimes will mix it up a little.

    After a lot of thought on this, one should not carry any! but I sometimes argue with myself.... so here is the rub... practical idea would be Maker's Mark sippin Bourbon.... if available - top quality moonshine, smooth for cleaning wounds and drying out fungus foot. Yea small hip pint bottle. Forget Everclear - sucks!


    Yea I am with the SOUTH in heart. ,,,,, Hard to understand when the owl is from Paoli?
    Dogs are excellent judges of character, this fact goes a long way toward explaining why some people don't like being around them.

    Dewar's White Label. Depending on how many days, either a 4oz or 8oz nalgene flask.

    strawberry stoli vodka- mixes very well with tang. Smooth enough warm drinks without ice are not a problem.

    Maybe I'm just a lightweight (or a moocher) but a half size nalgene of rum can get me at least 150 miles if I have a sip every other night or so

    I'm a Jager guy. A little sip tucks me in and keeps my toes warm all night.
