Old Steven king book. On a group traveling to a rain forest.

They gave all the equipment to a pack of monkeys for the night. Anything still working in the morning was certified as reliable.

I may be wrong (its been a long time since I read it, and it may be just something that fits really well thematically with the book but wasn’t actually in it), but I think that was Michael Crichton’s Congo, not a Steven King book.
