do you often forget your tampons?
maybe you need a mooncup.

They are very useful as tinder,
they pack small, and have a waterproof wrapping. They are also useful as part of a field dressing when you slip and put your ice-axe through your shoulder.

waterproof wrapping?
not with standard Tampax tampons, NO.
card paper card cotton/rayon-mix, that's how it goes.
