Please Parse....
4 Answers
Three clues I could not parse:
1. "With no end of frustration, search for shack" - I have HUT for an answer.
2. "Beasts of burden unhappily carrying limited container" - I have ALPACAS.
3. "Take ill-considered action and leave a drink set up around end of summit" - I have GO OFF AT HALF COCK.
Any help with parsing would be appreciated - thanks.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Best I can see for 3 is:
Take ill-considered action = Go off at half cock
Leave = Go off (to)
A drink = A half (as opposed to a pint)
Set up = cock (I'll put a link below. Look under verb)
Around end of summi(T) = T
Go off a T half cock
