What’s In Your Everyday Carry Bag Right Now?
Getting curious lately about what folks keep in their EDC these days, especially with all the supply chain weirdness and unpredictable weather. Mine changes with the seasons, but right now, it’s a compact multitool, a tiny first aid pouch—mostly herbal salves and wound dressings—plus water purification tabs, a bandana, mini flashlight, notepad, pencil stub, folding knife, and a couple vacuum-sealed snacks. Added a whistle and a bit of cordage last winter during an unexpected power outage.
Been thinking about swapping in a small solar charger and maybe a compact fire starter, though I try to keep it light enough that I’ll actually carry it. Haven’t sorted which is actually getting the most daily use. Anyone notice if they’re actually reaching for certain items over others? Has anybody found good ways to make herbal remedies more portable?
Would love to hear what others are actually carrying right now (not just the wishlist) and what ends up being the most valuable when things get dicey or just inconvenient. Always feels like there’s something missing or something extra weighing down the bag.
