I hope you enjoyed the Handbook!
Here are links to two other resources: This is the exact gear list I use to pack quickly for short trips, so I don't miss anything.
I've refined it through the years, and it's simple enough to help me focus and not spend a lot of time getting ready for a trip.
But the list has enough gear on it so I don't forget anything that could result in disaster!
Hopefully, you can use it, or adapt it so to create your own that works for you.
Using this list to keep prep time short for quick trips means you can take more quick trips, like this overnighter I recently took near my house. It was only a 30-minute drive and a 6-mile hike, so I was back home less than 24 hours after leaving:
