Hi Shutterbug,

All of the above are great suggestions. I might add a frio cooling bag for your carried insulin if you are in a hot place. While in the desert, I keep my pump in one, hooked to my belt, loose tubing coiled inside too.

I never go anywhere without a tube of glucose tabs in my pocket and a whole jar at camp. On hikes, I always have a few granola bars in my little pack with my tester, bandaids/neosporin and water.

PS: if you are hiking with kids, better throw a few extra treats in your bag or feel like Scrooge.
