This is a personal list of things I'll usually be carrying when overlanding

overland_checklist.txt

This is my permanent list of things to carry during complete isolation on
trails like the Rubicon. Places like Pismo and OHV parks; I usually pack
lighter since it's easier to get to the road and onto a tow truck, compared to
when I'm in isolation.

I've relied on the bare essentials in the past but it's obvious that I need to
carry more now that I'm driving further off road. So to that extent I'm buying
more tools so I don't have to keep moving mine back and forth from my garage.

### Tools for toolbox / bag ###
- Set of SAE and metric ratcheting box wrenches
- 2 crescent Wrenches
