My Hiking Bag

We are off tomorrow for another day hike in Red Rock Canyon and I finally got my hiking bag put together (actually I put together two, one for me and one for hubby).  Here's a list of what's in it (much of it from the $1 store and from Walmart!):

• Daypack
• Bottle of water
• Cell phone
• Camera
• Wallet
• Keys
• Makeup
• Granola bar
• Chocolate
• $20 cash
• $2 coins
• Bandana
• Sunglasses
• Sunscreen
• Whistle
• Compass
• Magnifying glass
• Flashlight
• Wet wipe
• OB tampon
• Tissue
• Bandaids
• Alcohol wipe
• Hand lotion
• Aspirin packet
• Floss
• Thumb drive
• Spare memory card
• Ziptie
• Carabiner
• Rubber band
• Safety pin
• Pocket knife
• Multi tool
• Matches
• Lighter
• Lip balm/vaseline
• Ziploc bag
• Pen
• Paper
• Emergency blanket
• Paracord
• Flourescent fabric strip
• Jacket
• Umbrella
• Walking stick

Most of this stuff I will never use but in the off chance that we get lost in the mountains/desert, many of these emergency items will be worth their weight in gold!
