The Big Stuff
Pack- Zpacks Arc Haul
(25.5 oz with hip belt pockets) Taken it out for a spin a few times, so far so good. Comfy! Link to gear
Tent- Zpacks Duplex

The Clothes On My Back
Shirt- Columbia Silver Ridge Lite
My first Columbia shirt, all I will say is YES! Link to gear
Shorts- Lulu Lemon
Ahhh short shorts… Don’t underestimate the feeling of having basically nothing on your legs as you hike. Link to gear
Pants- Prana Halle (Colder Sections)
Stretchy, rugged, super comfy, and tight enough on my thighs to prevent seam chafe (super key!). Link to gear
Shoes- Altra, Started in Lone Peak 4, switched to Timps
These have ruined me, in all the good ways. Love! Link to gear
Gaiters- Outdoor Research, Crocodile
These make me feel indestructible. Beyond rugged. Guessing I will love these even more when I’m postholing. Link to gear
Desert Gaiters- Dirty Girl
Peace signs, rainbows, and tie die, what more do you need? Link to gear
Sun Gloves- Outdoor Research
Hands down, one of my favorite pieces of gear! Pun intended. Link to gear
Things that didn't seem worth a photo...
- Underwear-Target brand laser cut thong. Yep, I’m one of those crazy people who likes hiking in a thong. It’s like a sweatband for your booty crack!
- Sports bra- Prana, couldn’t find the one I’m taking. Key factors: it’s supportive and the shoulder straps don’t dig in after wearing it day in and day out.
- Socks- Smartwool mens Ultra Light hiking or Injini NuWool
- Snapback hat
- Buff- UV Insect Shield (not convinced it shields insects yet, I hope to be convinced come summer)
