If you can't stand the heat...

Another thing to have plenty of, is gasoline. 

In aviation, pilots are responsible for knowing how much fuel their aircraft burn and for planning fuel stops accordingly.  Likewise, those going on off- road trips should know how far their fuel tanks will carry them.  I am very conservative in my fuel estimates.  Since I rarely drive more than 10-20 miles off road on my trips, I find that filling my six-cylinder Jeep Cherokee's fuel tank right before hitting the trail head gives me an ample fuel reserve.  That's my vehicle.  The reader will forgive the cliche, but "your mileage may vary."
