In addition to the normal off roading kit for those venturing into the wilderness for a day, what additional or luxury kit do you carry?

I have my sustinance kit, this comprises two 12v kettles, petrol stove, cups, coffee, frying pan and saucepan, and my cooler box. Inside the cool box is the ice packs covered by a layer of polystyrene foam to stop things freezing, milk, bacon, eggs, sausages, mushrooms, tin of tomatoes, salt, and a number of other niceties. Do i care if i get stuck? no, put the kettle on petal while i get cooking.

^^^^^ that sounds like me. Gotta have food and a cuppa

But also my camera.....always have the camera

Not really a wilderness up here in North East Scotland, but while thier is snow around allways a small cooker kettle cups tea suger milk and water, no real problem on getting stuck it is other who go out with no idea how to drive in snow and on less than 2"" of snow block the roads so end up in a trafic jam sitting for houres sometimes, becaous of councils not prepiered and allways say next year it will be better, (but it never happens).
Rant over


Used to be HGV driver going all over Europe so allways had tea making equipment.

totally agree,,,brew kit and some food for even a day out,,,,,,i keep a box in the back as well,,,, and i have my fitted kitchen on the back door,,,,so civilised,,,,

If I was going out for a day? Few cans of coke and a pack of crisps.

A cuppa seems to be a recurring theme around here, I'll drink to that! Well, no clinking tea cups smilie, so it's the next best thing.

If it is a heavily wooded area i will throw the small chainsaw in with its box and kit, got me out of many scrapes over the years.

Wey hey, I've found one! Especially for you Yoda, Assassin, Tuggy, Vixen ...

Thanks looks goooooooooooooood

Sorry, that cup is not large enough, but nice try.

depending on how long i`ll be gone for [ 1 day or more ] i generally throw in some high calorey snacks , choccy , bickys and lots of drinks . even if its just a long weekend away and not to far off the main roads .

Spare woman, just in case I get a puncture in the original!!!

When on an overland trip I wouldn't have thought food and drink were optional extras - more like necessities.

Optional extras are passengers and surplus to requirements

How far away is the nearest shop??????

For kids I would like to carry theirs favorite things like clothes, favorite subjects & specially Games.
