I don’t take any hunting firearms or fishing gear (well, I have some line and hooks in an emergency bag); I don’t take beer or soda or MRE’s; I don’t have a $450.00 pack or $300.00 hiking boots; I might take 50 foot of static rope JIC, but I’m not planning on climbing a damn thing, other than a few steep paths.
