Thread: Electrical tape

Took the rifle for another walk this weekend. I found some potential spots to keep in mind for future such missions but unfortunately no deer to be seen on this one.
Something for your amusement, however - I somehow managed to detach the entire sole from one of my second favourite pair of boots. Luckily I had a roll of electrical tape in the pack and was able to improvise to make the 8km track back to the car without too much trouble.
Probably shouldn't knock the boots too much - they're almost 5 years old and I should be able to have the sole glued back on easy enough once they dry out.

CW, show the value of a roll of tape in the bacpack. My experience is reglueing soles on boots is a temporary fix and you'll always be carrying tape just in case.

i have to agree, even on a day trip i carry electrical tape and cable ties. the uses are great.

Hard case have been in the same situation climbing a hill in the Godley, a roll of electrical tape got me through as well.

Had that happen with a pair of meindals walked into a hut overnight planning to go further up river to another hut - up in morning to find both soles 50% separated - stayed around first hut for a night tied/tapped them up and got out ok. Bush stalking with boots going plop plop plop not terribly successful
