- Camino Frences in June-July 2015
Hi everyone!
I am new to this forum and new to the Camino. I will be walking the Camino Frances from June 2 to July 14 and have finished packing my bag and everything. Since this will be my first time I would love to get feedback on my packing list from all you seasoned pilgrims.
Weight without water: 12 pounds
Weight with water: 15 pounds
I weigh about 122 pounds, so it is a bit above the 10% recommendation.
Here is my list:
- Osprey Sirrus 36 Pack (includes pack cover)
- REI travel sack sleeping bag
- Sea to summit insect shield sleeping bag liner
- 1L Nalgene
- Merrel moab ventilator hiking shoes
- packtowel (M)
- 3 stuff sacks (1 for clothes, 1 for toiletries, one for underwear and socks)
- pair light flip flops
Clothes:
- Helly Hansen raincoat
- Ultralight northface fleece
- 3 pairs smartwool medium cushion socks (I'm wearing one)
- 3 Pairs underwear (wearing one)
- 3 merino wool shirts (wearing one)
- 2 pairs shorts
- 1 pair convertible hiking pants
- 3 sock liners
- 2 sports bras
- 1 regular brassiere
- sunhat
Toiletries
- small deoderant
- packable toothbrush
- small toothpaste
- 1 bar soap
- chapstick
- contact lens case
- contact lenses
- contact lens solution
- small comb
- glasses (in case something happens to my contacts)
Other
- 10 Bandaids
- neosporin
- 3 oz 70 SPF suncreen
- 1 roll toilet paper
- 10 tampons
- 10 pantyliners
- small ibuprofen
- needle and thread
- small journal
- 2 pens
- iphone (which I will use as flashlight in the mornings too)
- iphone charger
- adaptor
- sunglasses
- toenail clippers
I'm thinking of perhaps dropping the toenail clippers (and just cutting my toenails really short before the trip since they grow slowly anyways), and also the sunglasses (I don't want to have racoon eyes and the hat should help anyways, and since we are walking west the sun is never in our eyes).
I also wonder if the sleeping bag liner is necessary since it will be super hot. Only use I see is helping ward bugs away. Especially bed bugs.... but shouldn't the sleeping bag do that already?
