Default Frisbee/Disc Golf Abroad

I love going discing. I rarely am without my disc, sits in my car all winter waiting to be taken out. I'm not very good but I love it as a past time, walk around, drink some beers and smoke a little.

So, I am heading to Guatemala in just over a week to backpack around.

While I am certainly not expecting a disc golf course, trees and rocks make great targets. I'm kind of curious if anyone has them self or run into anyone that brought a disc golf frisbee with them backpacking. I'm thinking for the 10 ounces one of them weighs it would totally be worth it and not to mention possibly introducing some people to it.

I went into Switzerland just to disc golf actually! To this day no one can figure out why I went into Winterthur and left Interlaken, Zurich and the rest off my trip
