• Thin liner glove - 1 unit

Choose those made of polyester.

• Medium windproof glove - 1 unit

CAMPING

• Sleeping bag 0ºC (comfort) - 1 unit

The "limit" temperatures indicated by all manufacturers are very relative from person to person. The ideal is to always consider only the "comfort temperature". If this is similar to the external temperature of the environment, you will be able to sleep comfortably just by wearing the second skin. We have it available for rent.

• Thermal insulating mattress - 1 unit

Preferably opt for inflatable or closed cell models. We have them available for rental.

• Pillow (optional) - 1 unit

Use specific camping ones, which are smaller and lighter than domestic ones. To avoid this extra weight, you can replace it with a sweater.

ACCESSORIES

• Backpack 40 to 50L - 1 unit

It is mandatory to have a waist belt and it is highly recommended to have adaptation for hydration bags.

• Backpack rain cover - 1 unit

• Headlamp - 1 unit

Having the most open ones, besides being more comfortable, is a safety issue if you have to go through a more technical section with little light. On some routes we make a short attack on the summit in the late afternoon to catch a glimpse of the sunset, and the descent ends up being at night. If you insist on not investing in this item, it can even be replaced by a cell phone flashlight, but IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED.

• Spare battery pack - 1 unit

Choose lithium batteries, which are more resistant to low temperatures.

• Sunglasses - 1 unit

An essential item to make your trip more comfortable. Radiation at altitude is greater than at sea level, so protect yourself!

• Trekking poles - 1 pair

It says "optional" because many people take a while to get used to using them. The benefit is tremendous: it reduces the impact on your knees by up to 30%. If you use them, avoid those with screw-on or automatic locks. They are less resistant.

• 3L Water Tank with hose - 1 unit

Important item because dehydration at altitude increases the chance of altitude sickness (severe headaches and nausea, for example). This type of system avoids the "taking off and putting on" of the backpack, but can even be replaced by plastic bottles.

• Waterproof dry bag 1L - 1 unit

To protect/organize small items and electronics.

• Waterproof dry bag 8L - 1 unit

To protect/organize clothes.

• Waterproof dry bag 30L - 1 unit

To protect/organize sleeping bag and insulation.

• Pee bottle (optional) - 1 unit

It may seem silly, but when you feel the urge to pee in the middle of the night, when you're warm and comfortable inside your sleeping bag, getting out of the tent can be a real pain. You'll have to put on several layers of clothing again to withstand the often sub-zero temperatures. Men can use just a wide-mouthed canteen, and women need a portable urinary funnel (there are reusable or disposable models).

• Hand warmer (optional) - 3 to 6 units

If you want to avoid getting cold at all costs, we suggest taking hand and foot warmers. These are small bags with chemicals inside that, when removed from their original packaging, heat up when they come into contact with oxygen in the air, maintaining a temperature of approximately 40ºC for up to 6 hours.

PERSONAL HYGIENE

• Sunscreen factor 50 or higher

• Medicines for personal use

• Toothbrush

• Toothpaste

• Toilet paper

• Chlor-in - 30 units

No matter how pure the water from a mountain spring or stream is, wild animals often defecate near water sources. Chemical purification is the most practical option during a trek.

• Deodorant
