I carry a small saw when BPing:

I use it for clearing the trail. I believe it's better to cut fallen limbs out of the way when practicable rather than widen the trail by making a route around them.

I only burn wood that I can break with my little paws. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
