Stay light for sure, water is the ABSOLUTE must. Do not over pack or over do your means. Bring a pack to the FOB with the extra stuff you think you may need. Battery, BB's, shirt, socks, ect. It will be safe and easier to have local than to try and carry over this AO. This AO wil i promise "break" you. Good boots/shoes... My extra is the Flee/tick cat or dog collars....cut a small piece out and put in you laces.
