Travel packing checklists / check list ideas, sources, samples

I'm a frequent traveler, and my destinations can vary - such as the time we went from a liveaboard dive trip in Hawaii to photograph polar bears in Manitoba (where one night it hit -40, in both F and C). I'm a reformed pilot, so I find the use of checklists invaluable. "Landing gear down? Check." Nowadays, my beloved has Alzheimer's disease, so I must honcho the packing for two.

I find adapting lists and using them with Google Keep is my easiest way.
Google Keep is free, intuitive and easy, and . Features:
  • Automatically updates lists kept in your account on any device you're using it on
  • "Pin" lists so they stick to the top of the page
  • Archive lists so they don't appear, but can be restored from the archive
  • Lists can be general, or check-the-box type
  • Checkbox items drop to the bottom of the list, unchecking restires them
  • You can color your lists for easy identification
Obviously, you can use printed lists, etc.

I'll add some more, but I've got to pack. How about adding your favorite packing checklist sources and examples? (Using the "Manage attachments" menu below your new post allows you to add a DIC, DICX, PDF, etc. to your post.)
