what do you guys use to drive in stakes?
Hey everyone,
I'm in the process of getting my backpack together for hiking and am trying to figure out what to use to drive my stakes in? I have been carrying a rubber mallet that I shortened the handle on but was wondering if anyone had any other suggestions? I often seem to find spots that are hard to drive stakes so not carrying anything isn't a good idea.

If the ground is soft, i use the heel of my shoe by stepping on the stake, being carful to stay lined up with the shaft of the stake.
If the ground is rocky, I usually don't have to look far to find a rock to use as a hammer. I also can use the butt end of my knife.
