Craig’s Friday(ish) Countdown - Trail ?s

Questions you shouldn’t and / or would rather not ask on a trail, from essentially ok to its gone to heck quickly.  Most (but not all) are easily avoided by hiking solo.    

 

#10 – Can I borrow some sunscreen?  This one’s actually ok, except I’m not sure how someone “borrows” sunscreen.

 

#9 – How much longer until ______?  Don’t dwell on ______.  Just keep going.

 

#8 – Can you carry ______ ?  No.  You packed ______, you carry it.  Unless this comes after #2.

 

#7 – Is that thunder, or the burrito?

 

#6 – Can I borrow a stick of Beemans?  No … sorry.  That’s the question to ask when strapping into an experimental, supersonic jet.  The only question.   

 

#5 – What are the odds there’s a drugstore with a fresh supply of Imodium round that next bend? 

 

#4 – Who do I look like, Daniel Boone?

 

#3 - The tent’s in your backpack, right?

 

#2 - Does anyone here have any experience with setting compound fractures of the femur?

 

#1 - Oh Dear Lord, those aren’t her cubs with her, are they?
