Backpacking Adventures - AKA Refugee Arrivals

Backpacking & Hiking Tours

Every backpacker must carry the essential survival gear one might need on a hike, most important of all being common sense.

Having the right gear is one thing, knowing how and when to use it is quite another. Most often, it's not a person's equipment that saves their bacon. It's their experience, know-how, and good judgment.

Conversely, it is generally inexperience and lack of good judgment that gets people into trouble. Not only must we have the proper equipment and know how to use them, but we must also cultivate the wisdom related to the backcountry leveraging off the experiences of others.

Here is a list of the most essential:

• Map
• Compass
• Flashlight / Headlamp
• Extra Food
• Extra Clothing
• Sunglasses
• First-Aid Kit
• Pocket Knife & Tools
• Waterproof Matches
• Firestarter
• Water / Filter / Bottles
• Whistle
• Insect clothing or repellents
• Sunburn preventatives
