North Face bag courtesy of Allan Vistan.
I have divided the main compartment into 2 parts: top and bottom.
At the bottom, I placed everything I will use for the cold climate at night in the campsite.
- 2 shirts
- thermal wear
- gloves
- socks (2 pairs)
- pants (linen)
- jogging pants (thick)
- 2 jackets
- shemag
- undies
At the top, I put everything that I’ll need during the bus trip and the actual trek itself.
- long sleeves
- another pair of socks
- bonnet
- scarf
- another pair of gloves
On top of the bag is the sleeping bag.
At the side pocket, you will find my toiletries.
- cellphone charger
- flashlight
- spoon and fork
- plastic container (as my plate)
- knife
- tissue
- alcohol
- lipbalm
- face towels
- chamoi
- tooth brush
- tooth paste
- Katinko ointment
- deodorant
- foot powder
I will also bring some medicine.
- Kremil s
- Biogesic
- Ventolin (in case of an asthma attack)
At the sides of the bag, you can see the 2 x 1L bottles of water and 2 x 500 mL bottles of Gatorade. There’s another 1L bottle of water inside the bag. I have also inserted the trash bags at the sides.
Other than the main bag, I will be bringing a shoe bag that will contain my trail food and food supply for the duration of the camp.
- peanut butter sandwiches
- Safari chocolate bars (22 pcs.)
- Eng Bee Tin beef tapa
- 1 can of corned beef
The main bag weight 26 lbs. Good thing I won’t be bringing my Canon 400D. That would mean an additional bag plus another 10 lbs. of weight to carry.
