Your Story or Advice for Others

General Comments
Unless you are a Mule pack only what you need. Do not pack your fears “Just in Case”. Make a comprehensive packing list with check boxes for Essential, Like, luxury. Then be ruthless.

Your Best Equipment
Sleeping mat as it keeps you warm and a good night’s sleep is essential.

Your Worst Equipment
None as very happy with my selections.

Advice for Others
Plan well and simply enjoy the experience.
