How about . . .

Dehydrated water. Save weight on long summer walks, just add water to rehydrate.

The invisible tent . . . ideal for low-impact wild camping, and great for getting out of paying campsite fees!

Self-extracting friends - save leaving expensive kit when your second can’t get it out, just have friends that come out when you pull!

Anyone got any more?

I am a big fan of the ‘dehydrated water’ What a plan! they say there is a fine line between genius and madness, well this kicks that right in the butt!

just make a really really big ‘Gourdon’ airtight backpack - fill it with helium - it’ll make climbing any route or bagging any peak so much easier. It will also make falls much safer….

Dehydration (hypohydration) is defined as excessive loss of body water. It is literally the removal of water (Ancient Greek: ὕδωρ, hýdōr) from an object. In physiological terms, it entails a relative deficiency of water molecules in relation to other dissolved solutes. There are three main types of dehydration; hypotonic (loss of strictly water), hypertonic (primarily a loss of electrolytes, sodium in particular), and isotonic (equal loss of water and electrolytes)

Symptoms may include headaches similar to what is experienced during a hangover, muscle cramps, a sudden episode of visual snow, decreased blood pressure (hypotension), and dizziness or fainting when standing up due to orthostatic hypotension. Untreated dehydration generally results in delirium, unconsciousness, swelling of the tongue and in extreme cases death.
