Pro Tips and Hacks thread

Do not bury your first aid kit down in your pack. Have it labeled and easy to get to. Someone having to sift through your pack after you cracked your skull open and are unconscious and need immediate aid sucks. Ask me how I know.
I keep my tourniquet strapped to my pack strap. No time to waste if needed
 
Wow I've never seen any such thing before. You carry a whole extra water bottle for this purpose, then?

I do, yes. I carry a small, 6 oz bottle that’s crushed up. Been using it for ~5 years. A lot of hardcore bidet users just use their drinking bottle. I’m good on that.

Don't cover your hunting vehicle in hunting bumper stickers. It's like putting up a huge sign, DECENT BUCKS RIGHT OVER THIS HILL COME JOIN ME

I hear stuff like this all the time…. Are there really people out looking for stickers and following people to the trailhead? Seems a bit paranoid but I’m open to changing my mind

I certainly take a mental note when I see vehicle with hunting stickers parked somewhere unusual.

It's also a good way to advertise:

"Hey, scumbag!!! there is probably expensive stuff in this truck or the house it's sometimes parked in front of."
