Ok as the title says what extra gear do u have ,things you feel essential when your hunting or trail riding.
Six rolls of toilet paper, one pack of baby wipes, and two pairs of clean gitch.
Is that for a bouncy ride
150 feet of hydro rope for winching
Battery booster pack
Small folding shovel
Machete
Chainsaw (on occasion)
GPS
Waders (spring, summer and fall)
Drinking water bottle
plus.....hunting or fishing gear appropriate to that days activity
I have a UTV so can carry lots in the box.
Machete
Chainsaw
tools
fishing or hunting gear depending on time of year
Cooler for drinks
rope
rock pick
5 liters spare fuel
100' of rope,2" clevis,rain suit,leather gloves,mini saw,pruning shears,small ax,cooler pack,drinks and sandwich.I almost forget to mention a small snatch block. They can act as a doubler or direction guide if you really get swamped in the muck.
If I'm hunting it's rare to go far on an ATV as I enjoy walking quietly to my spots. On my bike there will be a basic tool kit, water and a chainsaw.
If I'm riding, an axe, water, tool kit, tire plugs, spare oil in case of a drowning and a can of ether or a COČ blaster for tire repair. My tires are always able to run airless but it sucks when you break a bead. Usually I ride as light as possible because I don't like things flopping around in technical terrain and I hate having my bike off balance.

small folding shovel, axe, plenty of rope, snatch block, tire repair kit, hand air pump, 12 volt air pump, 9x12 tarp, 1st aid kit, a few basic tools, spare spark plug, spare lighter/matches, extra gloves, couple small flash lights, bum wad and finally, a rain suit. This is my standard stuff. There would be food n beverage of course depending on the day's trip.
Ok fuel can i have small axe i have tool ,tire patch rope gps small flashlight got all that so i need a snatch block and air pump spark plug and basic first aid kit
This is one of those threads (one of the many)when i learn new stuff. Thanx.
I was not familiar with the terms of-snatch block(eventhough i know about the basics-but the term and all the details not),bum wad and even the gitch is new term for me:ashamed:;).
By now i think it is clear-English is ESL for me.:thumbup:.Lot to learn.
I truly enjoy though learning new-usable-funny or slang terms.
Perhaps some of You do not even think that some words here are "special".But for the curious and unaware,they are.
Now-for the OP-for the snatch block, i think one would need a winch on the ATV.........it was not mentioned earlier,so i am not sure if You do.
The block could help-but you may need else to increase the force you want to aply to loads in the bush.Come along,block and tackle or a strong and handy friend,who is there when needed.:o

As for your question about "don't you need a Winch to use a snatch block?"
NO! I just need a rope. The longer the rope the better. The longer the rope the easier it will be for me be cause of two things.
1) The longer the rope the farther I can reach an anchor point.
2) The longer the rope the more snatch blocks I can use in the system..

As for what do I carry....just think tow truck.
Thanx Snowwalker,appreciate the videos.Good stuff.
I've got to add this also to my original response. The area around my cabin is made up of farm land, several lakes and bush. It's not remote per se, although it would make for a long walk if broke down or stuck and there is cell service available. I don't worry too much about striking off to my hunting areas, all within a couple of miles. The gear I listed is what comes with me when I'm out in the boonies heading to a few back lakes fishing. Most important for me when I do, is the buddy system. I don't head out alone. My fishing partner and I rely on each other for safety when venturing on these forays. Depending on where we decide to go, it could be as far as 20 miles from our truck, and no cell service. Broke down in that situation by yourself could be serious.Quote:

I have a Inreach from work that I carry with me everywhere.
Global messaging and interactive SOS. Great tool to have.
Anyone who strikes out alone into the woods should learn how to build a flip flop winch. The flip flop is quite simple to put together out of chunks of wood and has yanked me out of some situations where otherwise, it would have been a long walk back.

A good video of a flip flop winch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFDGGht3CQU
A hand bow saw, tree strap and a first aid kit on top of the many mentioned things.
And if your ATV is belt driven a spare belt.
And spare spark plugs.
Have you ever changed the belt on a Can Am?
Changed lots of them, 15 minutes without a thorough cleaning. All you need extra is an M8 1.25 bolt, it does need a fair bit of thread though.Quote:

I was under the impression you had to remove the right side foot rest, etc before you can even get the cover off. Yes, then the long bolt to open up the clutch.Quote:
