Packing List

We will explore well-used and somewhat populated trails.  The risk of injury is low, but it is wise to be prepared. 

 

These are the items that we strongly recommend you pack:

 

• Hiking shoes - preferably trail runners or hiking boots - something with good tread. A second pair of shoes could be needed, there is the possibility that your shoes could become wet or muddy

• Hydration pack or daypack and water bottles

• Hiking first aid kit

• Instant cold pack

• Hiking clothes for all types of weather. Plan for layers, it could be cold, hot, rainy, sunny, or all of these in one day

• Snacks that are stored in your pack

• Medical Insurance card securely in your pack 

• AllTrails App - Sometimes trails lack cell service. It’s important to download the route to your phone before each hike to utilize offline navigation capabilities. We will send the Alltrails link to the hikes each day once trail conditions have been confirmed

 

Also Recommended:

 

• Wool socks (Smartwool and Darn Tuff are great)

• Sunglasses

• Hat

• Hiking poles. These help take the strain off the legs/back and offer stability on the rocky trails

• Moisture-wicking clothing. 

• Sun protection

• Wipes 

• Kleenex 

• Toilet paper

• Hot packs for hands/feet

• Cyalume light sticks or small flashlight
