Complete List of My Gear

This is a complete list of the gear I use for a trip of thirty days or more in which I will be camping and when the temperature will be at least 50 degrees Fahrenheit. The list is organized according to the type of gear. If the trip is shorter than thirty days I eliminate some of the items. If I won't be camping I eliminate the camping gear and the top-tube bag. In colder weather I make needed adjustments.

I've omitted brand names and model numbers below, but click the link, indicated by gold text, to see the exact item I use. Since publishing the previous version of this page I have reorganized the list to make it more logical. I will revise this page as I modify my choices.
