          Flashlights (yes plural)
          Lots of spare batteries
          Old hand towels (for those times when you get a “little” dirty)

          “Tools” kept in the car (new because of geocaching)
          Snowshoes
          Trench shovel
          Nuvi
          Bags of plastic bags
          Kayak (on the Christmas list – I’ve been really good Santa)

            Along with what was already mentioned, we’ve added a Leatherman, a headlamp, an expandable magnetic reach tool,a pair of 2 way radios and some of those nifty little tools for rolling micro and nano logs nice and tight.
