Adjusted my kit for my hike. Should rain throughout the day tomorrow. Repacked water sensitive items in bags. Added a pouch on the waist belt for all my navigational items. GPS & satcom affixed to the side of my backpack via Velcro molle patches with cordage connecting the device to the pack incase it detaches from the Velcro. Used some shock cord and attached it to my backpack so I can quickly store my hiking poles without taking my pack off. I can store them on the go without stopping. I’m constantly honing in the pack. Removing things, adding and moving things arround. A new item I am bringing is an old smart phone that has been configured specifically for hiking / camping. It contains maps, geocaches, satcom software and everything I need without internet connection. It’s in a waterproof case to boot. Tomorrow’s hike will be a great place to test it out. I planning to do a write up on the configuration of my pack and what I carry for a day hike compared to a multi day hike.
