Field Trip Packing Checklist

← All field tools

Build an editable checklist for your outdoor activity and conditions.

Expected conditions

Add, rename, remove and tick items to fit your group and route. Generate builds a fresh list and clears edits. Check forecast, access, daylight and group skills; this starting list does not assess your route. Entries last until the page closes, so download a copy.

Walking essentials reference: Mountaineering Ireland: Walk Safely. Observational equipment additions are OFG suggestions.

Instructions

  1. Choose Activity, Planned duration in hours and Route type.
  2. Tick the Expected conditions that apply to your outing.
  3. Select Generate, then add, rename, remove or tick items to fit your group.
  4. Use Download results or Print before leaving the page.

Understanding your results

The checklist is a starting list based on your selected outing. A local photography walk and a remote group trip need different equipment. Review the generated items against access, forecast, daylight, group needs and the route you actually plan to follow.

What to do if your edited checklist has changed after generating again

Generate creates a fresh list and clears edits. Download the version you want to keep before rebuilding. If an item is missing, add it yourself; the tool cannot assess your route or know every requirement of your group.
