Packing List

Information about packing

We do not have the luxury of throwing loose items in the back of a van. Everything must be packed to go through the airport security/baggage system.

You can bring three items: a daypack, a sleeping bag, and a suitcase. You can carry two items on the plane (day pack and sleeping bag) and check your suitcase.

We have very limited space in the vans, so your bag should not be larger than about 25”x12”x12” (Duffle style bag is best. No hard sided suitcases)

Remember, you will have to carry everything you bring: Through the airport, to the vans, and in camp. Please pack accordingly.

The airline has a strict rule of 50 lbs for luggage. Any bag over 50 lbs will be assessed at $25 charge, and you will be responsible for paying this charge.
