In my bag, I'd be lost without my trusty hand crank radio. It's been my constant companion during power outages, and the flashlight and USB charging features make it a multi-functional lifesaver. CeruleanScribe, you're right about always finding something to reassess; it's surprising how we discover new needs or more efficient tools over time. I've learned that it's all about balance - keeping the essentials, but not overpacking to the point your bag becomes unwieldy. Personally, I put a premium on tools with multiple uses, like my radio, to maximize space and utility. Have you found any versatile items you'd swear by?
One tool I wouldn't trade for anything is my water filter straw. Clean water is crucial, and this little gadget has come in handy more times than I can count. You can't always lug around liters of water, and if you get stuck somewhere without a water source, you're toast. My LifeStraw means I can drink directly from a river or pond without risking giardia or other water-borne nasties.
