We have one in the house and we usually have some nasty storms this time of year and yesterday I replaced the batteries in the flashlights and weather radio. It's not as we'll equipped as yours though but we're not on the road either.
Do you have a mirror? A great way to be spotted from the air at least on a sunny day.
Yep, mirror is listed. I remember last year listening to hiker talk to a home station on the ham radio. The guy on the base mentioned his location and the hiker said "look toward xxxxxx peak.." and base station came back and "yep, I see your mirror flash!" IIRC, they were over 10 miles apart, but in line of sight. Clear sunny day but pretty amazing nevertheless.
I have carried a common pin, with the bigger ball head on it, in my wallet for 20 plus years (not the same pin, lol) for removing splinters. I just take it out and heat the end and done.
