Yes, well now you know where he spends all his time on the internet.

Back in boy scouts we had the "15 essentials" that we had to carry everywhere we went when we were out in the woods. I still have them and don't go on any trips without them, although, over the years I've forgotten what a few of the things are and added a few things. Here's a list of what I still have.

1. Waterproof matches in a waterproof container, lighter
2. First aid kit
3. Water purifying tablets
4. Partial roll of toilet paper
5. Space blanket
6. Compass
7. 30' of parachute rope
8. Flashlight
9. Batteries
10. Whistle
11. Signal Mirror
12. Pen and Paper
13. Knife
14. Mole Skin

All of this fits in a small fanny pack which can be taken with me if needed.

Usually on my wheeling trips I take enough equipment to get me through a couple days of comfortable living. A lot depends on the terrain and anticipated weather. I've always assumed I would shelter in place so these aren't necessarily for hiking out.

Sleeping bag
1-2 days of MREs
2.5-5 gallons of water
Head to foot rain clothes
Tent

Eventually, a firearm of some type will be added

So far, I have yet to see atrail that I couldn't walk out of in a couple of hours. Hopefully one day I will see a trail that necessitates a survival pack.

mine is more along the lines of general emergency.

ive also started carrying all my medication, including a round of antibiotics (that i swap out before the expiration date) and pain killers. also, i carry duct tape and some papertowels. you can make a better bandage out of that than anything. i also carry extra batteries, a flash light, a glow stick (incase i run into an emergency rave),
