Ok, so we all know that life can get really tricky out there if you don't have the right tools. I don't know about you guys, but it's high time I update more than half of my equipment. So what I'm wondering is not just what gear y'all just can't live without, but where to find this stuff. I'm not sponsoring any one online store, but my eyes cross when I type a search for 'good hiking boots'. So what gear would you consider essential above all else, and where should we go to find it?

My 'Can't Live Withouts':
1.) My knife. Not to say this goes everywhere with me, -including the grocery store and church- but it does. I've carried this knife everyday for the last six years. It's fixed my glasses, car, pack, nearly everything.

2.) My Elph. All my freinds know I'm practically a surgeon with my 35mm slr, but some times you just have to have a semi-disposable point and shoot camera. I don't always have time to stop, check my lighting, focus, f-stop, and all that jazz. So this guy lives on my belt. Should I ever see an action shot in the works, he jumps out of the leather case like a cowboy's six shooter, and bam. The rest is history. Actually.. My latest entry to the UNEP photo contest was taken with this aps. Go figure.

Can't wait to see what you guys think! ('specially about those damn boots! hahaha)


***Perhaps this should've gone in the gear section. Sorry, still kinda getting used to this site. -chris
