What's the one "luxury" item that you can't go without on a micro adventure?

I love clean socks! I'll take one pair per day + a spare + another waiting for me in the car for the drive home.  What luxury do you have to take? Stu |

Probably my little bag of 'things' including batteries, compass, whistle, fire steels etc.
For those, just in case moments......

My Therm-a-rest Trekker which converts my sleeping pad into a chair. When you get over 50 a little comfort in camp goes a long way.  |

they're great little things (if you carry a thermarest).
Great for getting a little cack support when sitting around after a long day.
Thanks for sharing

It's gotta be my camera!

Good answer, since I got a camera I have always carried it when out and about, never though about leaving it but never thought of it as a luxury, not sure why.

A 6oz hip flask, brimmed with a decent scotch.

My honey Stove.. It's a great way to have a contained fire anywhere and packs down small.. sometimes a warm fire can change the entire feel of a day. (and the camera always comes too)

Definitely my Brew Kit
Nothing quite as rewarding as stopping for a hot mug of tea while out on adventures.

It has to be the brew kit. I now consider it to be a navigation aid. If I get lost or disorientated I just stop get a brew on and gather my thoughts trying to retrace my steps to the last place where I was certain of my location. By the time I have made tea I either know where I am or at least what direction to head. Quick and sudden navigation (navigation without a brew) is often flawed. I find the act of stopping long enough for water to boil calms and clears the mind.

Actually, it might well have to be a good, strong ale for me. Whether as part of a pub-stop, or something I carried out/in.
