Each field trip normally begins a month or two prior
to actually getting to the field site. Field supplies need to be replenished
which includes ordering the necessary supplies and having them delivered to our
Brownsville laboratory with enough time to pack them prior to our departure for
Nepal. Packing these field supplies, in combination with your personal items
can bring out the best in one’s organization skills and at times, thinking
outside the box – or in this case thinking inside the white plastic jar. Also,
don’t ever let anyone tell you playing Tetris or doing jig-saw puzzles will get
you nowhere. As you see in the photos, the specific skill set(s) learnt from
these recreational activities is essential when it comes to packing for field
work!
