There are 10 items that you should never be without whenever you venture out into the
field. These items are known as the 10 Outdoor Essentials and they are items that will
enable you to survive unexpected situations that can arise. As a Scout, you should
always have these items with you whenever you go out of camp, on a hike, or on a trip
out of the local area. Even if you are planning on just going a few hundred yards away
from camp, you should always have the 10 Outdoor Essentials with you – you never
know what is going to happen.
