You are a traveling across what used to be Colorado and Utah: it may be cold, it may be hot.
This is okay, you have caches of clothing and weather gear you can easily pick up. Electricity is sporadic outside of wealthy areas of cities, and water more so due to the scarcity of correct piping. Most people over the age of 30 are dead, less so in the cities. You are not terribly wealthy, and cannot afford many specialised or high tech tools. Manufactured goods are vastly more expensive, so most of your stuff is natural based and durable.
What would you carry with you on a daily basis?

What's the threat environment? Wolves? Bands of cannibals? Fast-zombies? None?

In order to answer this, I guess the bigger question is what threatens your survival. Are there marauding bands? Cannibals? Mutant creatures? Radiation? Zombies? Is the land more arable or is it a wasteland where nothing grows? All these questions greatly impact what choices you are going to make; if food is plentiful but safety isn't, then you're going to make different choices than you would if there's nothing at all, dangerous or nourishing alike. My next question is how are your cities being fed?

Are we traveling from one place to another within Colorado and/or Utah? Or do we have a base of operations we are based out of? How do we make a living? There are a lot of factors at play here, and some further detail will help narrow down possible answers.

The standard Post Pockyclypse Traveller's Kit:
- Knife #1. Not a dainty little folding pocket knife. A proper knife. Gets the job done proper like. Saves on ammo. Scares the bejeezus out of anyone facing the wrong end of the thing. Yes, those are 4mm thick steel serrations along the back. No, these were not made for sawing wood! Ouch.
- Knife #2. Workhorse, full tang, with sharping stone.
- Shotgun. Pistols are for pretenders. You need something that can do real damage almost without aiming. Good for hunting & defense. Plentiful ammo to boot.
- Water filter. Speaks for itself.
- Some rope. Useful for so many things!
- A good book. Unless you're special forces or a prepper, you probably don't know a whole lot of specifics about post pockyclyptic survival. Read deep. Learn fast.
Other than the above, your standard Boy Scout (back when the Boy Scouts were actually about Scouting and not social engineering) kit will suffice: maps, compass, water bottle, poncho, toothbrush, emergency surgical kit / first aid kit, couple interesting trade items, carving or pocket knife, fire kit, survival blanket, pencils, moleskine journals.
With "most people over the age of 30" being dead, I don't think you can count on any electricity, water, gas or goods of any kind getting anywhere. It's the people who are over 30 (and under 70) who actually know how all that stuff works, know how to fix it and do the actual work. Most of those who are still alive will be the ones who've picked the military surplus shops, gun stores, pharmacies, hospitals and so forth clean while all the 20-somethings are wondering when their e-connections are going to become less sporadic.
Your traveller is going to want to move from place to place with some stealth. Away from people who are sick, starving, desperate a/o suffering from Netflix withdrawal. Hitting a supermarket or mom-n-pop shop for some canned goods may be a necessity from time to time. But for the most part, she's going to want to live as much off the land as possible. Hunting & trapping; raiding the houses of the dead; looting the occasional shop. Unless she's got a troop of like-minded individuals with her, she's going to live a very dangerous life and she'll want to stay away from people as much as possible. Find a few good folks in the area she can trust, keep the rest at bay!

+1 for the fact that I'll never take an American show with some 'hero' holding a pistol seriously again. In point of fact, I never did but at least now I've realised why.

I think replacing Knife #1 with an Axe might be better. It would work better than a knife at deterring people and would let you work with wood a lot better than a knife. That or a machete...

If they are getting close enough to you while you have a rifle, then they won't care about your axe/knife/machete. You should have taken the shot when you could. Anyhow, as for my thoughts: a pistol or two in case of emergency might not be a bad idea. A rifle is better, but if you lose it, being able to pull out a pistol as a backup wouldn't hurt.

@SoraTamashii I only wanted to change Knife #1... not replace the shotgun as well. An axe lets you cut wood, for fire and to quickly prop up a canvas/tent, an advantage since you have a secondary knife.

What's the threat environment? Wolves? Bands of cannibals? Fast-zombies? None?

In order to answer this, I guess the bigger question is what threatens your survival. Are there marauding bands? Cannibals? Mutant creatures? Radiation? Zombies? Is the land more arable or is it a wasteland where nothing grows? All these questions greatly impact what choices you are going to make; if food is plentiful but safety isn't, then you're going to make different choices than you would if there's nothing at all, dangerous or nourishing alike. My next question is how are your cities being fed?

Are we traveling from one place to another within Colorado and/or Utah? Or do we have a base of operations we are based out of? How do we make a living? There are a lot of factors at play here, and some further detail will help narrow down possible answers.
