What is the peice of gear that you can't live without?

I'm K-man. I have a Venture Crew (Boy Scouts of America) and we're making a trip next summer to Kokopelli trail in CO. I need all the help I can get to get these kids into shape. So, glad I found this site. I started working in Grand Junction, CO on a 14 and 14 basis and this part of the country is making me not want to leave. Looking forward to communing with everyone about everything to do with Mountain Biking.
