Got stuck in a blizzard on the trail last winter and now I pack way differently

I was out on the trails near Houghton Lake last January and a storm rolled in way faster than the forecast said. Ended up stranded for about 4 hours with just a basic tool kit and a half tank of gas. Now I always carry a thermal blanket, a hand warmer pack, and an extra gallon of fuel strapped to my sled. Anyone else have a close call that made them change their whole setup?

Man that sounds rough, did you lose any feeling in your fingers?

Can you still grip stuff or is that gone too?
