It would be just so much easier to follow behind TACODOC, teotwaki and 99wj , on the trail....!

Yeah, but they're well armed and might not be inclined to share...

Sharing is always a good thing. I just don't like being told that I have to share :elkgrin:

 

[99wj]

Well armed, yes.... But always willing to share, i think that most of the time you have more fun hanging out and wrenching on someones rig than just driving around. (not always the case but usually it's fun)

Safety in numbers amigo! :costumed-smiley-007

What one of needs, one of us has. But when I'm solo, I dont like to be SOL so I plan, plan, plan.

Yes, always.

Bump, anyone?

I know it was there a few months back, I can only assume it has been deleted. Mods would be able to see if it had.

The thread you're thinking of is not one of the 3 linked by Teotwaki, in post #11 above? I'm not seeing any deleted 'gear list' threads...?

TP/baby wipes/wag bags

One important piece of advice. Never attempt to clean up in the dark using baby wipes and accidentally confuse them with Clorox wipes. I do like tingly feelings below the waist, but not that kind.

EPIRB
Sat. 'phone.
Water.

We pack our 'survival' gear in a rucksac "grab bag" that is stowed behind the passenger seat where it is instantly accessable and can be thrown out of the vehicle in the event of a "crash and burn".
It is pointless having all this stuff if it is destroyed 1 minute before you need it.

Cheers,
Peter

we always called them "bail out bags" or "bug out bags"

I know a lot of us haul hundreds of pounds of stuff around with us just incase, but this tool is worth its weight in gold.

Spare key

X2. The only items I use more are the air pressure gauge and wet-wipes.

Get Outta' Dodge bags :elkgrin:

I prefer to have an alcohol stove instead of a traditional backpacking stove like mentioned. I made mine out of 2 beer cans and a penny for a regulator and will burn everclear, vodka, rubbing alcohol and fuel line antifreeze all of which can be easier to find than a fuel can for a stove. Also pantyhose make good emergency belts and don't take much space.
