The McCall Hiking Club Recommended Equipment List

• Good, comfortable hiking boots - rubber soled sports shoes get slippery on wet trails, logs and steep rocks

• Fanny or day pack that will accommodate 2 pints of water and zipper pouch for food etc.

• Band-aids - the small round ones are perfect for blisters

• Bug spray - a small container is ample

• Pocket pack of tissue - there are no toilets in the wilderness.  Bury all waste and tissue 6-8 inches.

• Sun glasses

• Map

• Compass

• Pocket knife

• Waterproof matches

• Dry socks

• Plastic poncho

• Emergency blanket

• Mirror

• Whistle

• Water filter or clorox drops

• Small first aid kit

• Cell phone

• Large first aid kit and extra water in your vehicle

Carry it in, carry it out:  Remember no trace camping
