I'd throw out 3/4 of that stuff and replace it with a bottle of good whiskey.

what about camp shoes?

[sly dog]

Nix the flashlight for a headlight even if its a wally world one. If you are on the AT do you really need the compass? Also dont the iphone have a compass? As a firestarter use the hand cleaner if you need it. I never used a firestarter or took matches, take 2 mini bic's. Keep away from the cotton clothes. 1oz of soap and or hand wipes to clean. Duct tape stored on the poles is a must.
