Is it possible to maintain physique without a gym?

Because my job calls for it, I may be stuck out in the middle of nowhere. I have three sets of dumbells. 50 lbs being the highest. (I only bench about 250. I'm more about being toned than being big, anyway. My body fat is 6%. Stats aren't really relevant, anyway.) I'm just wondering if I could maintain my physique with what I have, and cardio and body weight exercises.
Thanks.
 
With this information yes.

Volume work has its merits, use your 50s and stay low BF% (diet) you will look good

Once money allows grab something else
 
Wow 6% is very respectable. You can definitely stay cut and strong. Just gonna take some creativity, solid diet, and cardio. Use five gallon buckets full of rocks or dirt if available. Do body weight workouts on anything you can find. Just a matter of determination and ingenuity.
 
bodyweight workouts for the win! I did it for ages when i was into gymnastics. also are you near a kids playground? there are so many exercise options when there is a kids playground its almost like a free gym.

As a matter of fact there is one at a church on my running route. That's about all there is. I'm really really stressed about losing what I've worked so hard for. But I guess if you want something bad enough you'll figure it out.

There are so many different options on a playground. You can during pull-ups, dips, muscle-ups etc. Just create some circuits. Wind sprints, push-ups, v ups, pull-ups, air squats
 
Bands are great. Like the ones EliteFTS, Rogue etc. sell. Cheap and effective. Can modify for any exercise. Get the lighter ones for more reps, since you're more into toning than size. Can pick them up just about anywhere now, even regular fitness stores carry them.
 
I do bodyweight stuff all the time in crap hotels. Bench dips, pushups, incline pushups, etc...and you can do alot with those dumbbells as mentioned above; might have to go higher volume of course. Man I've had to use small sofas, coffee tables, and standing lamps in a pinch.
