What do you put in your pack for a two hour hike?
Answering a request from a follower, asking to see more of my gear that I haul when I go out. Great topic, so I encourage viewers to add comments about their 2 hour pack gear list.
So today, I was out in a day-use provincial park with the dog, so the items that I have with me would be the base for longer outing. Now, I did forget some water, but again, I had planned for 2 hours.
The items I had with me were:
- Tilley Hat
- Buff headwear
- Outer layer (based on weather)
- iPhone smartphone
- Folding Knife
- Bic lighter
- Compass
- Safety Whistle
- Fire Starter
- Notepad & Pencil
- 30 litre day pack
- Garmin GPS
What is ALWAYS in my pack: lighter, compass & safety whistle. Everything else will depend on the outing and weather conditions.
