- Umbrella:Maybe the rain shower isn’t moving along, and you can’t wait for it to pass by. Convert the tarp to an umbrella by using small branches as spreaders. Be sure do use fallen twigs - cutting live branches is not permitted in your park.
- Safety Line:When hiking or biking with a small child on slackwater sections with sheer drops to the river, twist a few TFPTTOBs together, attach one end to the child’s belt, and hold onto the other end to keep the child away from the edge.
- Cell phone case:Keep dust, rain, and insects out of your cell phone by carrying it in a TFPTTOB. Don’t lose control of your bike while talking on the phone.
- Gaiters:When the winter snows are deep, wrap a TFPTTOB around each ankle to keep show out of your boots.
- Tourniquet:To control profuse bleeding, stretch out a TFPTTOB to strands and wrap tightly around a limb between the wound and the heart. Be sure to observe the usual precautions about tourniquets.
