Complete List of My Gear - Cross Country 2024

This is a complete list of the gear I used for my Cross Country 2024 trip. The list is organized according to the type of gear.

For future trips, if the trip is shorter than thirty days I will eliminate some of the items. If I won't be camping I will eliminate the camping gear and the top-tube bag. In warmer weather I will eliminate the cold-weather clothing.

I've omitted brand names and model numbers below, but click the link, indicated by gold text, to see the exact item I use.
