I'm not sure if she knows where she is going. I know she'll make it to Machu Picchu, the Galapagos, and Santiago. She'll be there a year, and to call her a free spirit is an understatement. I like the advice about batteries and another post about compass inclination. I think that her pull is not knowing what she wants to do until she gets there. I want to make a generalist kit, not one geared to any specifics.

Good call. I know that, but completly over looked it. Ya think a local one would be best, or one with a "Global Needle"?

Thanks,
Bisc.

The rainy season is a good point. I'll pick up a book on local flora and fauna too.

Thanks,

Kinda looks like what we called "Cone Noses" in the Big Bend Country of South Texas. Wonder if they are kin?

Thanks,
