Above is simply a personal check list that I use for my own gear inventory. This is by no means a definitive list and each individual will have there own requirements. I have submitted my gear lists as I felt it would be useful as a start for many walkers out there. The above lists are mainly designed for those who only occasionally stray from paths and trails. The above lists do not include climbing gear as I am not a climber and spend most of my time on the hills simply walking in the countryside and mountainous areas. For those who wish to print the lists out as a start to their own gear lists I have added the following suggestions for other gear and empty boxes for you to fill in your own extra gear requirements. I am a man so I don't include women's hygiene or medical gear that may be required.
