*= must have -= can survive without
Clothing
*Pants (you can survive with just one pair but laundry day can get kinda riskay)
--spend a decent amount on good outdoor pants with zip-off legs, we have World Wide Sportsman fishing/hunting pants. made from nylon an polyester like gortex. breathable, stain/odor resistant and dry very quickly.
*shirts (I sugest 2 per person. Its nice to switch to a clean shirt after a hot day)
*underwear
*PJ's (again, really nice to change into something less sweaty)
*socks (your feet are your biggest asset while backpacking. TAKE CARE OF THEM. Remember: light colored cotton sock on the inside and a dark polyester on the outside)
*windbreaker (doubles as a rain coat and jacket)
-longjohns (for cold weather only)
-long sleve shirt
- wife beater
-club clothes (Europe especially has some interesting one- of- a- kind clubs)
Papers (ths stuff is light and easy to pack and may save you a lot of trouble)
*Copy of passport (Colored would be best but black & white is fine)
*copy of any visas you have
*copy of any flight/travel info/reservations
*copy of any medical perscriptions
*list of embassies and emergency numbers
*Copy of list of vaccinations and whatnot (some countries require them. Go to the CDC to find out what is needed)
Meds
*enough perscription meds to last through the trip
*decongestion
*antifungal
*anti-diarhea
*acetemetaphin (tylenol not aspirin)
*hydrocortisone
