Build three useful layers
- A moisture-wicking base layer for walking and active days.
- A fleece or insulating layer for cooler mornings and evenings.
- A waterproof outer layer when rain is possible.
Protect your footing
Wear broken-in, closed-toe shoes with traction on wooded trails. Pack dry socks and check forecast lows before choosing sleepwear and extra blankets.
Keep essentials close
Bring a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, and appropriate insect repellent. A light jacket and headlamp should stay accessible even on a short outing.
