Hi BP4Fun,
I'm that guy still wearing a fanny, or butt pack. I know, I know, NEVER wear a fanny pack.

But, I do. It has water, a boo-boo kit (very small amount of first aid goodies), knife, flashlight, a litre of water, a whistle/compass/match holder combo thingy, two bags of homemade trail mix (approx 400 calories each), a flare, my patented redneck fire starter kit, a space blanket and a 55 gallon trash bag my meds and some sugary peppermint candy. Oh, and of course my trusty anti-zombie/crackhead device.

Even so, I never hike more than a couple of miles from camp.
