Bushwalking gear and paraphernalia. Electronic gadget topics (inc. GPS, PLB, chargers) belong in the 'Techno Babble' sub-forum.

TIP: The online Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.

new method to store cream

too much effort in my opinion but it may be useful for longer trips or alpine trips where weight is more important

Yeah, might be a rainy day project sometime. It could certainly save some bulk.

Great find! I have this teeny tiny toothbrush kit (matchbox size, brush fits into the storage box - kit came with an italian bike helmet I bought - go figure), this will solve the refill issue of the paste, reckon I can get 2 days per straw tube @ twice per day.

Clever but not new.
If you were a regular forum tragic , like me, you would have seen that a few years ago at Backpackinglight , but most likely not new then.
here is the same idea from another site , June 2009..

I suspect that there are about 3687 people that have come up with the same idea.
Found that thread...
