I like this list. I really like that a tarp and golite poncho could be paired for some serious protection and comfort if got a few days of rain. The only thing I didn't see was a mosquito head net or other form of insect protection. I have one from Peter's – highly recommended – but also like the idea of just having a big piece of netting handy to lay over me when needed. Around camp, clothes and a head net are usually sufficient, but if we ever start getting rain in the sierras again, that night change.
