Resources Packing lists
Arctic adventure packing list
Real cold, short days and weather that changes fast.
Where I've used this list
Tromsø, Senja, Svalbard
Nate: replace every section with what you actually packed. Only list gear you use.
Layers
Base, mid and outer layers. What you wore on the coldest day.
Hands, feet and head
Gloves, socks, boots, hat. This is where most people get it wrong.
Gear
Headlamp, spikes, day pack, anything else.
Camera and tech
How you kept batteries alive in the cold, and what you shot on.
Documents and money
Anything specific to the trip.
The trip-killers
The things that ruin the trip if you forget them.
Your top three.
