There are many field expedient methods for making your own anchor; all are a pain in the ass to pull off; and all require you to carry extra stuff.
For example..... you could dig a deadman anchor....

I've heard of burying a tire...but that sounds pretty painful.

It is; search for an army recovery manual... you should come up with many different examples of a dead man anchor. also one that involves no digging.... just a teaser for those interested...

I did this one day when I got stuck on a sandy track leading down onto a beach. Winch out every little tree I could reach with the winch cable, then had to resort to burying the spare. Pulled it out a couple of times before I got it right. Hard work that's for sure, and not as easy as it sounds.
