I'll have to try your Leukotape on Wax Paper solution. I hadn't found a way to carry a small amount.
ReplyDeleteWax paper melts in high heat. The release paper from stickers/shipping labels works better.
DeleteError on my part. I specifically use the USPS shipping labels and not wax paper. Thanks for the clarification. I edit the entry later.
DeleteIs that Leukotape on the sticky side of a VUSPS label? Why not wrap some on a straw? How much do you carry. Is that and your small amount of BodyGlide all you carry for foot care?
ReplyDeleteI put it on the side that the shipping label was on. I started a few years back using the leuko tape from a small straw cut to hold the tape. But what I found was that the leuko tape became hard to handle on the straw due to the adhesive. The tape on the straw also stuck to everything. When the tape is on the shipping labels the fit nicely into a small ziplock with no hassle on sticking to other things. I carry at most 4 labels with 2 strips on each. I can then trim as needed. I use the Body Glide as back up for feet but mainly I use it for groin areas. I mainly only have the Body Glide for the 1st week and half of trail. The leuko tape I keep a few labels for the duration. That's all I use for foot care. In town I'll trim toenails as needed with disposable toe nail clippers...
ReplyDeleteDoes a bear can fit in the kumo with room for other gear?
