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.
…the myth, the legend.

WARNING: This is a brief video of two people dying. The wife thought she was taking a picture of the event, but it was actually a video.
I have been in these intimate, private circumstances many times before with my own brain.
Nothin’ is better than round, uniform tins for hauling certain things. I’m really fond of them because they stack neatly and can save quite a bit on space. I get them off Amazon in two different sizes at a low price - a small, snuff-size can, and a larger can.
The only real drawback about them is that they can get beat up fairly easily, because they’re made out of really light aluminum. But for their low cost, I reckon it’s no big deal, since they’re easy to replace.
