One-Day Trip Gear
Although Bearpaw River Expeditions will supply all of your essential gear, there are certain "extras" that will increase your comfort. We want you to be comfortable and secure so that you can fully enjoy your Lochsa experience. Please consult the following list of suggested gear to bring.
|
|
- long underwear (made of polypropylene or silk, wool, or any other water wicking material) to wear under your wet suit. This is especially important on early season/cool weather trips. On late season/warm weather trips, a swim suit is a good choice to wear under the wet suit.
- thick wool socks to wear under your booties
- a warm sweater to wear under your splash jacket; fleece, capeline or wool are good materials to use
- paddling gloves
- raingear
- water bottle
- sunglasses with a retainer strap
- waterproof camera
- trunks to wear over your wet suit
- sunscreen
- hat
River Knowledge: it is better to have too much rather than not enough.
Note: Cotton should never be worn on a cool Lochsa trip. Cotton holds water against your body and makes it difficult to stay warm. The previously mentioned materials are much better to wear on your trip.
A camping gear list is available to our multi-day river guests upon request.
