Default Trail necessities!

I didn't see a thread in here about the trail necessities, and I think that should be a big part of "4x4 101"!

list what you carry!

When I hit the trail(summer time especially) here is what you will see:

1. Fire Extinguisher
2. 1st aid kit(band aids, hydro poroxyde, ace bandage, bug bite, etc...)
3. cooler with drinks
4. rope
5. snacks(chips, fruity snacks)
6. normally a towel(never know when you need to jump in the river)
7. cheap folding shovel you can get one at walmart for about $9.00 in the sporting goods
8. flash light
9. camera
10. trash bag
11. a small bag of tools(plyers, vise grips, misc tools)
12. 20' tow strap
13. ??????

You forgot the most important thing:
Fruit snacks for the kids to keep them quite.

I am a big kid at heart, so the fruit gummies would apply to me too!

I dont have sirius anymore, but I have a feeling 116 isn't my kinda station. The only thing I miss about sirius is blue collar comedy!

Oh ya, I forgot all about gloves! That's a good one. I normally forget gloves, but when I need them, I wish I had them!
