The trail pack checklist
Short answerTick off your kit before every hike - your choices save on this device, and you can print the list for the fridge or the car. Adjust it to your trails: a summer desert loop and a snowy ridge need different margins. A checklist can't cover everything; route, weather and your dog's condition on the day still call the shots, and health worries are questions for your vet.
How to use it
Check items as you pack; the progress bar keeps count. Untick anything that doesn't apply - the list remembers what you changed. Print a fresh copy before big trips, and pair it with the guides: what's worth carrying, water and heat judgment, and the rules for where you're going.

Before you leave the trailhead
Thirty seconds at the car sets up the day: tell someone your route and return time, check the forecast one last time, confirm the leash rules for the area, and take a photo of the trail map at the kiosk. Then go have the kind of hike that makes the dog sleep the whole way home.
