Just wondering if there is anyone else that hammock camps that uses rubbers bands for securing odds and ends. I always carry a small ziploc full of them. They are very under rated in my book for their usefulness while hiking, etc.
I see alot of talk about knotbones and knots and bungee, etc. Here a few of the uses I have for them.
1. I always use one when putting away my figure nines.
2. I use one on each side of my UQ to make sure it doesn't come off during the night if I need to adjust half asleep.
3. Closing up bags of unused food.
4. Holding my bag/TQ closed while I grab the stuff sack.
5. Holding my pants legs closed during skeeter season.
6. Holding back my hammock sock.
This is just a few off the top of my head. They are free, light, and have a permanent home in my pack.
