As I recall, you carry a day pack with the non-photo gear things you need on
the hike.....
Indeed, our needs differ. On our daily walk 1-2hrs I just throw the EM5
over a shoulder. On an all day hike I carry enough to survive an
unexpected night out. Or, more likely, to share with someone in need I
may encounter. I meet more and more people who consider a hike in the
mountains to be similar to a walk in an urban park. e.g. on the last
hike the pup and I met a couple of young kids in low-top sneakers and
shorts and inadequate shirts. The weather was changing rapidly. I waited
for them at the trailhead, no problems this time, they had the sense to
turn around.

Big change in two weeks! Some ski hills are now open with 3-5ft of snow.
I'll be sticking to the lowlands for a while.
