WHAT TO BRING...

Small day pack & very small thermos for a hot drink
Rainproof hiking boots (Athletic shoes & street shoes are not enough)
Warm, lightweight jacket, preferably rainproof
Various sweaters (Canadians dress in layers!)
Good sunglasses
Sun screen
Lightweight camera is optional

Hopefully, we can go out in short sleeves every day, but in the mountains, one must always be prepared for cold, especially with altitude gain. It's weird, but really exciting!
