- Flashlight with fresh batteries (check before departure)
- Whistle for emergencies and wildlife deterrence (one per person)
- Tweezers, bandages, antiseptic wipes, and creams (anti-itch, burn, aloe vera)
- Pain relievers (Tylenol, Ibuprofen, or aspirin)
- Thermometer and a first-aid handbook

Bring additional flashlights for each adult and child to avoid conflicts. Battery-powered headlamps are perfect for nighttime activities like cooking, as campfires might not provide sufficient light.Additional essentials:
