What should travelers pack for comfort and safety when going to the cretaceous period?

Answer 1

The middle of the Ordovician period would have been fairly mild. Plus there was abundant marine life for food. There was no animals, or plants on land. A traveler to this time Would need a shelter, and lots of fishing gear. Near the end of the period was an Ice Age, so winter clothing would be a must.

Answer 2

Well, I'd bring heavy fire arms (with lots of ammo) for sure... Just to be safe. The Cretaceous period was the period of the big dinosaurs (Tyrannosaurus Rex, for example.) Something to start a fire with would be nice as well. This would provide heat, light (at night), and it would serve as a cooking method (Maybe those Dinosaurs you bagged earlier?) and protection, as wild animals (including dinosaurs) fear fire.

Answer 3

Dinosaur repellant, if it were possible. It would also be much warmer across most of the globe.
