Packing your Gear
On all of our tours, there is always limited space for gear
and a possibility that the bags may get wet, so it is important
to pack wisely. Your gear (excluding sleeping bag and pad)
needs to fit into two medium sized dry bags or two medium
sized nylon duffel bags (approx 12” x 18”) that
are lined with trash compactor plastic bags. Your sleeping
bag should also be in a nylon stuff sack lined with a compactor
bag. Trash compactor bags can be found at most grocery stores
and will work much better than regular plastic bags. Bringing
a larger nylon duffel bag that will fit all of your smaller
bags will make carrying your gear easier, but is not required.
We can help you sort and pack and answer any questions in
Petersburg before heading out on the tour.
Storing Extra Luggage
Any extra clothing and luggage you have can
be stored either in the Scandia House luggage room or with
us while you are out on your tour.
*If you have any questions, feel free to contact us: 907-772-4600
or info@tongasskayak.com.*
