The List
We love the list. The to-do list and the pack list. Nothing is more satisfying than to check off the list and feel control. The pack list can be shared with others and updated after each tour. Did you bring stuff you didn’t use and maybe more importantly what did you miss? There are many similarities between packing for the paddling and hiking adventure but with one important difference – the weight! Every gram counts when hiking so we recommend light tents, equipment and dry food when hiking. Please dont hesitate to let us know if you have some feedback on the list below. Together we will make the list great!
