+itsme_timd Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 Hi Folks, What do you pack to take along when you go caching? Me personally... I've got a light canvas backpack that I stock with the following: - Water - 8-Pack GPS Food - Notebook / Cache List and Notes - Digital Camera (LOVE to photograph the areas I visit) - Swag items - Pens - Small dog water bowl (GeoBoo goes with me on most of my caches) - Small bag for CITO Some items I'm going to add now that I've been on a few hunts (as well as a note to what prompted me!) - Flashlight: Yes, I got lost in the woods at night WITH a GPSr on me. NOW I know why it has tracking!!! - First Aid Kit: Thorns and rocks are bad. Very, very bad... - MultiTool: Thorns are bad. Very, very bad... - Towel/Rag: Ford Prefect is a very wise man. Anyone else have any suggestions or favorite items to tote along? Tim Quote Link to comment

Anyone else have any suggestions or favorite items to tote along? Tim I guess a valid question one might ask would be... how long is this trip? If it's a local cache that might involve a short walk from the parking lot... or a 2 to 3 mile loop around a lake .vs. a 7 mile round trip hike with 3500' gain. Two of those would require me to bring my gps and a pen... and nothing else. The third would be a day pack full of necessary items... or overnight gear if I was spending the night somewhere between the car and the peak. Quote Link to comment
+Mule Ears Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 (edited) That's pretty similar to the contents of my geo 'go' bag, a light shoulder pack for quick snags close to the Jeep. A compass, paper area map, notebook and pencil are always part of my kit, too. When we were doing more in-town caches, I added a plastic dental mirror, a ladies' makeup mirror, chopsticks and a length of solid wire. These were valuable a few times for extracting micros or their logs from hard-to-reach places. Duct tape, laundered hankies, a tiny sliver of soap, tweezers, and a few remedies (sunscreen, bug-off, aspirin, Benadryl, Ibuprofen, caffeine) are also must-haves. For really short trips, I divide the essentials up and stuff them into cargo pockets, slide a liter bottle of water into a belt-holster, and just go.

+Airmapper Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 (edited) Two of those would require me to bring my gps and a pen... and nothing else. I agree, pack light. On the quick caches close to parking thats usually all I pack. I really like the GPS cases HERE I have the larger one, and I can pack everything I'll need to cache. GPS Digital Camera Spare batteries Mini Mag Flashlight Lighter Small pin on compass Pens/ Pencil I also pack a PDA, but it can go in a pocket. All of the above, and other items, like 2-Way radios, sometimes a Laptop computer, spare GPS, amplifying antenna, swag, etc...will fit into a plastic ammo can I got at Wal-Mart, and everything I need to go caching is in that box, self contained, and out of my way.

Anyone else have any suggestions or favorite items to tote along? Tim I think your list summed it up very well for me. I used to carry in a daypack full of junk for just about every cache, but like CG, I now take very little with me for most caches. Typically, I'll only have my GPSr, my pda, my camera, a pen, and maybe a bottle of water and trade item or two. Sadly, I recently removed the collapsible dog bowl out of my pack since I had to have Darby the Wonder Pup put down last fall. Quote Link to comment

+Friendly Goat Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 I normally take the usual things, but also a couple different ones. Though I've only used it once, I normally carry a katadyn water filter. Also since having an interesting experience with a coyote den, I carry a small blunt object just in case (it's tucked away in my vest, not like a baseball bat!). Perhaps instead of the latter, some bear mace would do, if you're off in the wilderness (bear attacks have become a bit of a problem in the past few months in eastern and central Canada for cyclists); for those like me who hike alone, it's good to have something, I'd imagine. Staying light is good, but the boy scout in me wants always to "Be Prepared." :-) (a small bottle of Off has saved me many agonizing bites too, and only weighs a few grammes). Quote Link to comment
+MohaveGreen Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Depending on where you live and your mode of trasportation the supplies would vary. Here in the desert of Mohave County I take a day or 24 hour pack (approximately 1800 cubic inches) that will give me survival for one or two days. I keep the pack in my truck or ATV depending on which one I am using. FOOD: oatmeal, hot chocolate mix, power bars, nuts, emergeny purified water (small pkgs), condiments (sugar, pepper, salt) water enhancers (gatorade pkgs), dry pack tuna, crackers, slim jims and before I leave I buy a sausage roll. SAFETY: knife, compass, matches & fire starter (dryer lint), rope, lip balm, sun tan lotion, signal mirror, beacon light, extra batteries, binoculars (small ones), GPS, FMRS radio or cell phone if you have one. Small first aid supplies, wet wipes. bug repellent, liquid biodegradeable soap. and yes a tooth brush and tooth paste.(make your own by cutitng a small one). FLASHLIGHT. CLOTHING: pair of socks, thermal blanket. TOTAL WEIGHT approximately 20 lbs Quote Link to comment
+howjr Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 In addition to what others wrote, I pack - a pencil sharpener to fix dull/broken pencils I find - camera batteries - water, water, water -- In a CamelBack pack - hat (my sparse hair dome gets burned easily) In my car, I also have several pre-made caches ready for a new hiding place I might find, complete with permanent marker to name them, and the geo-rules sheet, logbook, pen, and initial sets of trinkets.

+mkeyzers Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 All those items are great suggestions that I pack as well. The one thing I would add is a pair of binoculars.

lovetocachewithkids Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 MY OWN SHARPIE! I always bring my own pen, because most of the time IF the cache can fit a log and IF there is a pen left behind, it is usually just a ballpoint pen. I like my fine tip Sharpie. As mentioned above, if its a short urban cache I just grab the GPS and my pen. Longer journies, or multiple caches I grab my backpack ~crank flashlight ~water ~tweezers (good for those micros!) ~swag ~geocoins/travel bugs ~GPSr ~river shoes (rather walk through water in those than old tennis shoes) ~first aid kit ~index cards (sometimes a log is wet and ruined, or is full, so I throw a card in) ~towel ~camera Quote Link to comment

+monstercatambush Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 Most of the time I'm hiking at least a couple of miles, so I've got a 3-day army issue pack with two, one-quart canteens, one on either side, clipped on with ALYCE clips. I have a replacement cap that goes on either canteen that came with a hose and bite valve, making either one a camel back type hydration unit. A pouch for my GPSr and one for my military lensatic compass are clipped on the shoulder straps on the front. That makes the GPSr ride high enough that I don't lose signal in the woods like when it hangs around my neck. I include a nalgene bottle full of dog food for the pups and wrap about twenty yards of parachute cord around the narrow part of the bottle. My other nalgene bottle holds trail mix and has a considerable length of camo duct tape wrapped around it for mending things. An army issue poncho is strapped in the loops on the bottom of the pack for when it rains, but it also makes a pretty quick awning I can string up with some of the parachute cord. Also packed in there is a thing called a "dog canteen" from the local pet store. It looks like an old style round canteen but has one side that screws off and makes its own bowl. The water tight seal lets you pack it along pre-filled. Other than those things I'm carrying some of the same stuff as everyone else: A big ziplock for things to trade, and another with spare log books, pens, pencils, a sharpner, STASH NOTES, batteries, and other cache essentials. I usually have at least one micro (though they suck) and a waterrproof lexan box painted camo, about 8"x8"x4" for a medium cache. There's room in there for food for a day or so if need be, as well as for a regular ammo can cache. A good army surplus store is a true blessing! All this stuff is typically in the pack and in the jeep for when the mood strikes. Quote Link to comment
