Not sure if there is a better place for this post?
Do you have any specific items you can't live without while in the great outdoors?
(excluding essentials like tents, ammo & 'mountain money')
My small band of hunters (usually 3) stay out for 5-7 days, and since no motor vehicles are allowed we pack 3 horses up. Our site has two running streams and a
very old well (which works as a makeshift cold storage) so the majority of our gear is acutally food.
For be personally, my
most important extra item is my alcohol stove. I started with a
mil-surplus stove, and now upgraded to a
Trangia series. Even at high altitudes these things are great! I cook 3-4 times a day on mine and it's a lot more convenient and efficient than getting a campfire up to speed. Of course I had to get a
titanium spork to go along because, well I am just a sucker for snazzy gear...
The item that I most
forget to bring - Chapstick; something I am just not comfortable sharing...
