Field Notes

Ever wonder what you’ll need for a few days in the wilderness? Ever come back from a trip wondering why you packed so much? The list below will guide you as you gear up for your journey and was prepared with Spring & Summer in mind so figure temperatures above 40 deg F. Don’t be afraid to add or omit items as appropriate for your trip but before adding items take minute to review what you’ve packed and see if you can’t find another item that can serve the same purpose. For example, instead of carrying a camping pillow try folding up your fleece in a stuff sack or just folding it up under your head at night.
