Shieling of Mark – Gear List

Shieling of Mark - Gear List

The following is the gear list for this trip.

The pack is the North Face Trail Lite 36, a larger capacity pack which has served me well on other fastpacks when the load is more extensive or simply bulkier.

My intention is to sleep in the bothy, but I always go prepared for the worst case and I choose to sleep outside. As the weather forecast is good overnight, I am only taking a groundsheet and bivy bag for that contingency. The other sleeping items are for a winter overnight, with forecasted temperatures down to around minus one or two.

Everything else is fairly standard for a single night, cold weather fastpack other than a couple of additional lighting options for the bothy.

  1. TNF Trail Lite 36 backpack
  2. Pack cover
  3. 2 x 300ml bottles
  4. Dyneema groundsheet
  5. Rab Mythic Ultra 360 sleeping bag in its own compression drybag
  6. Sleeping bag liner
  7. Inflatable pillow
  8. Nemo Tensor Extreme sleeping pad
  9. Samaya Nano Bivy
  10. TNF Goretex Active waterproof jacket
  11. Sea to Summit Event drybag containing a Montbell Superior down T-shirt, OMM Core tights, OMM Core socks & a merino balaclava.
