Necessities On The Trail
#1
Well so far I haven't done too much trail riding, mostly desert riding, and messing around, so I'd figure that I would ask the professionals before I go out on the trail, what are some necessities?

So far I've thought of:
-Jack
-Spare Tire
-Fire Extinguisher
-GPS
-CB Radio
-Extra Can Of Gas
