Your typical flask will hold 8oz of hootch, which falls ridiculously short for anybody who doesn’t want to run out of whiskey on the first night of a week-long backpacking excursion in the backcountry.
A fifth of whiskey is 750ml. The little travel bottles you get are 325ml. If you hop on Amazon, you can pick up this beautiful (and beautifully-light) 400ml Silverant bottle made out of pure titanium. It’s a real thing of beauty. It also strikes a really nice balance between going without enough and going with too much.
The backcountry is always more enjoyable when you’ve got ol’ Mr. Booze to dull some of the aches and pains at the end of each day.
What is your theory? I don't have a dog in the hunt about this, but I was just wondering with 30 or more Bigfoot sightings every year how come no one ever bags one? That is the one thing that makes me doubt. I read the sightings which are full of tales of people fleeing in terror, but almost no one ever opens fire. What do you guys think?
