Stabilizer blocks
Like Jim, I rarely encounter a campsite where the stabilizers on the 19, won't reach the ground and do their job. However, should I encounter the need, I carry some pieces of one by six about 8 inches long. I can stack a couple up and that will usually do it. If I need more than that, I usually move a little or put some dirt in the hole. I use scraps of western red cedar that I have at home.
As a long time camping ritual, when we've been out for several days and are going to return home the next day, we usually have a nice campfire on the last night. As it gets late, and nobody wants the night to end, I round up the spare blocks and announce to all present " We're going home tomorrow, got to, cause I'm burning the blocks." Then I throw them into the fire for one last bit of campfire. Good for a laugh at the time.
