Equipment
What clothing and equipment should you bring? Since being suitably equipped is the single most important consideration contributing to your welfare, we have provided the following information which we ask you to consider, adapting it where you feel necessary to your own outdoor experience or preference.
There is a fine balance between taking too much and too little, especially considering that you need to equip yourself for all extremes of climate. Over the years we have seen all extremes, from trekkers who have brought everything but the kitchen sink, to others with the bare minimum.
