Gloves against thorns

Some trails are truly risky especially when the grass is high or bushes are blocking the pathway. I had experienced many times getting blisters on my hands due to the sharp blades of the reed and bushes. That made me wear gloves to save my hands from the thorny growth in grassy trails. Instead of clearing the path with a bolo, it's better to just pave the way with a gloved hand.

 

This is usually one of those things that you may not really think about until you are faced with the pain, but certainly is good to have on hand - pun intended. Thankfully I do have a pretty sturdy set of gloves that I always bring with me.
