We have no influence on whether the trail storm surprised us, but we can see in advance how you can shorten the route and go down to the nearest shelter, the village or the bus stop. Not to mention the fact that even with full sun always in the backpack should have a jacket. The same applies to a flashlight - it is better to move it useless in a backpack twenty times than the twenty-first to get caught at night in the forest. When planning a route with children should be borne in mind that the sometimes very long distances does not have shelters and the child will not have a place to settle or to wait out even as the weather is bad.
