It has been dry, until lately, in the woods around me.



I walked the creek and never was in danger of getting wet…







Food wise, I wanted to mix it up with something easy to prepare and make burritos. I went for the classic Bean & Cheese! I used the Swiss Army Knife and some snare wire to hang the beans rather than to set it down and fumble with it in the coals (like I’ve done before).

Snare wire can be cut with the can opener blade by simply putting it on a log and giving it a good whack with a beater stick.









Beans, Spanish rice and cheesy cheese!



Easy and fast, not to mention that putting food in a tortilla is a simple non-messy way to eat food.



How did this get there?



I did carve a quick spatula for mixing the beans around and rice…



It worked, but lost every beauty contest…



Made and modified a couple of standard wooden camp tools…

Rabbit digging stick








Anvil/Stump that is able to hold small logs in place…





Wooden nails to hang my tongs on the dead birch that holds up my shelter.

Tortillas and the backwoods were made for each other. It's an edible plate! lol
 
Mexican food in the woods, works for me. Or simply using wheat tortilla shells for simplicity and adding whatever you like to them.
 
Nice thread as usual RB. It;s been really dry here too, and quite forest fiery even, So outings have been limited due to being behind on work. You are simultaneously making me want to go on a wander and actually miss parts of my teenage years as well.
 
Score on finding a log donut. They can be tough to find out of season. 👍
 
Awesome pics! I avoid beans in the woods. Ferro rod anywhere near my butt and ... you get the idea..
