Good list. My list has other things specific to my needs and vehicle, but this looks like a great one in general.
This is a long thread so I may have missed it: Baby wipes
"A clean butt is a happy butt", our red neck, North Carolina, friend Tom says. You add the good old boy acsent and it's funny every time.

See you in Baja

I bring a bunch of soccer balls, shoes, and frisbees to pass out to the kids. In some of the small towns (or smaller) what the kids play with is
really sad. I give the ball to the smallest kid, hopefully ensuring him a spot on the field.
Too cheap to buy a good compressor, so a scuba tank does tire and impact tool duty when required.
Three different kinds of epoxy. That stuff has saved my life.
Lacquer thinner to clean parts
Plastic containers to carry out ALL of my trash, or at least what I can't burn.

Good one, Curt, but we can find those everywhere...uh, sometimes filled with yellow liquid.
How about starting fluid (ether)?
I use it to mount tires that have fallen off the rim (and spare tires off the rim).
I use it when the vehicle won't start, to rule out fuel problems.
Also a great cleaner of delicate electronics, like your mass air flow sensor, which can get gummed up.
Not to mention great night-time pyrotechnics with a lighter...

HOW TO GET UNSTUCK IN THE BOONIES
Open the below link and print the article. Put it in your glovebox before going to Baja California. It shows you how to get yourself unstuck if ever
stuck in the desert. Make sure you get the tools they talk about before you go.

Here is a rough list of vacation to-bring items based on my own ideas as well as others. It is by no means complete. It does not include specialty
items such as all we need for dirt biking. If you include all woman's items (such as hair dryer/curler etc.) the list would likely be three times as
long. I'll edit the list every so often as I remember things or if anybody suggests anything not already on the list.
