I love to go hiking here in Oregon. I live outside of Portland Oregon and about one hour to the Oregon coast. So I will make a list of things to take when you go backpacking.

A torch/flashlight - you don’t want to be stranded on a trail with no flashlight. I have almost put myself in this position.

First aid kit - a must have. If you get cut or injured you should be prepared.

A multi-purpose pocket knife - I carry one with me and so should you.

Sunglasses - It’s nice to look cool but its also helps to protect your eyes against the sun.

Sunscreen- You don’t want to burn your skin. If your around sand or snow this can magnify the sun.

Light sheet/sleeping bag

Toilet roll

A few bin liners
