I always have a bandanna usually worn under my boonie. Not sure why I did not list it! Probably because it is almost automatically part of head covering at this point. 🙂

The wool liners are a mainstay for me. When the local outdoor store ran out of them, I went into a mild panic. All was good when they were back in a few a months later. 😉

and my CCW leather waist holster…

at least one large cotton bandana ON ME.
folded flat in a back pocket or worn…
