How to avoid these mistakes ⤵️ 🫶🏻 SEND this to the person you want to backpack with this winter! Backpacking in the fall & winter is so amazing, but there’s definitely more to think about and plan for than in the summer. [Save this for backpack planning] 🙈 Yes, we’ve actually made all these mistakes, or just didn’t have the right gear with us at the time. Avoid these real mistakes: 🧊 Frozen water filters - We left our filter outside overnight with our food bag and it froze. Instead, keep it in the tent with you to keep it warm. ⛄️ Forgotten gaiters - When transitioning from summer to fall it’s easy to forget the trail changes too! Be ready for early season snowfall especially if you’re going up in altitude. Skye made her own with duct tape to keep snow out of her approach shoes. ⛈️ Underestimating the weather - This time of year, weather can change suddenly and not follow the forecast. White out conditions, icy rain and high winds should be considered when packing. Always bring a rain shell. 🥾 Wearing the wrong shoes - We’re guilty of stretching our trail runners too far into the snowy trail season. Be sure to have waterproof boots and warm socks for long soggy trail days. 🧣Warmer sleep systems - The combination of earlier, colder, and wetter nights make it easy to underestimate the need for a warmer bag and a high R-value pad.
