I thought it might be interesting to start a thread on items people don't think about that are useful when hunting or camping.
I'll kick off the list with camp footwear. I picked up a cheap set of Croc wannabees at a TJ Max - I think I paid $8 for the pair. I use them to cross streams or rivers - remove my boots and socks and slip these on. Nothing worse than wet socks / boots. cross, get to the other side, remove them, shake them off and hang them on the outside of my pack. they're quiet. I have a simple loop of paracord and a carabiner for this purpose.
In camp, I use them if I need to get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, or to walk around camp in general when I don't need / want to be in my boots.
They also make good shower shoes if at a hotel or campground.
what do you guys have - other than the obvious stuff?
