In this photo, I’m wearing my food-bag skirt!
My shorts had ripped and my rainpants were too hot. When backpacking, I don’t carry extra clothes, just one of each type, except socks. I cut the bottom seam of my nylon food bag, which turned out to be just the perfect size for a drawstring skirt. It’s made of silnylon, silicon nylon, so it’s waterproof. It was a good rain skirt too!
When have YOU been resourceful, using something right at hand to fill in for something that you didn’t have.
A hiker’s motto I like is:
“If you don’t have it, you don’t need it!”
