"What's in your bag" - 2025 edition

[+doingitoldschool]

So I did try a search for this, and didn't find what I was looking for. My caching bag has changed A LOT since 2007. 

Here's what I had today, for a light bush, near the highway trail. I went "old school" and used the 64sx for finding the caches.

Several pens, including a space pen,

pocket knife,

large and small multi-tool,

lighter,

whistle and pen on lanyard,

bear spray, bear banger with two rounds,

battery pack for charging cell phone,

extra Lithium AA batteries,

Rite-in-the-Rain notepad,

GPSMAP 64sx,

eyeglass tool,

magnet extension tool,

Canada Geocoin (my personal trackable)

credit card tool,

and a flashlight.

All in the handy MEC shoulder bag, with the bear-spray on a carabiner hanging off the shoulder strap. I also had a bottle of water in my bunny-hug pocket, and I had my iPhone 16.

Ruby the Wonder Puggle (she's a trackable)  on a harness, with a leash handy and a snack bag with treats. She also drank some of my water, drank from the river, and ate snow.

Extension magnet

Pens and markers

Multi tool

Pill bottles 

Tweezers

Zip lock bags

Hand sanitizer spray (for poison ivy)

Meat tenderizer (for fire ants)

Flexible claw grabber

old etrex gps

Step stool

Screw drivers

I thought about a car bag, and you've got a great kit.

After picking up a tick yesterday, I need to add heavy duty bug speay to the kit.
