Rugged terrain and extreme weather are the norm, so you’ll need to gear up with the appropriate clothing for heat, cold, rain, and snow. You’ll also want a second set for the halfway point drop bin so you can re-kit.

Consider waterproof layers, extra footwear and socks, sun protection, a hydration pack or vest, fuel and hydration, a headlamp, a small medical kit, and other items for the long haul.
