    A good knife and a wetstone.

    Rope and some twine come in handy.

    Slingshot is great entertainment! Don’t kill anything you don’t intend to eat but in a pinch could get you a small meal.

    Waterproof matches.

    In danger noodle territory a snake bite kit could help.

    Know the area. Make sure you research it well! Make sure your map is topographical to show mountains and valleys. Tell your emergency contact where you will try to go if something goes wrong. Show them on your map with a red x. Maybe take a pic and send it to them.

    If your going with a friend radio’s or meshtastic is nice. I bring a small solar panel to charge my phone! Keep it off so you have battery if something happens you.
