neat!

My Buddy the Gun Enthusiast has posted a photo of what's in his pockets, including his mini-emergency Altoids tin kit.

I'm going to work on mine this weekend - once I eat all the chocolate covered mints - and will post a photo once I'm finished.

What's in your pockets? (pics!)

The Altoids tins have poor hinges.

More expensive, but also more effective:

I bought a commercially manufactured one that is on a lanyard. Water tight and light weight. Good back in the days when I white water rafted more.

Keys, cash, cards and credentials!

OK, I'll play.

Left front. Wallet. It's a guy wallet, so it's stuffed fat.

Right front. Keys, handkerchief, comb.

Right rear. Pocket knife -- Buck Juno, an inexpensive lockback that I kind of like. That's the only thing I let be in that pocket.

Left rear: accumulated change and a couple USB memory sticks.

Belt, right hip, Gerber tool. This being Illinois, of course, nothing else goes there.

The backpack is usually close by. In that I keep an LED Maglight, earplugs, camera, a water bottle, a Tupperware double sandwich box with more tools, a safepacker, a bible and some cash. Hmm -- need to find some twine.

I suppose I could restart civilization.

I wear a photographer's vest that tends to be full of more stuff than the local US Surplus store. If you add up everyone's stuff in their pockets in the comments section, it would come close to what I can dig out of my vest. The only thing I keep in a pocket is my knife.

LF- Money clip with sixty or so bucks, a second fob so I can leave the truck running and locked.
RF- Pocket knife, original keys/fob.
RR- Nothing.
LR- Wallet.

Cel stays in the truck 'cause I hate 'em.
