What to Bring for Lodging
This comprehensive gear list has been thoughtfully curated to help you choose what to bring. We’ve partnered with Backcountry.com, a Salt Lake City based company, to provide our guests recommendations for their upcoming trips.
PACKING LIST
To ensure comfort on your lodging trip, layer your clothing throughout the day. Prepare for any weather, even if forecasts are sunny. At higher altitudes, mornings and evenings can be cooler so be prepared for changing temperatures. Pack a duffel or roller bag for easy storage inside our trailer and mobility around the lodge. Use a small daypack for your essentials throughout the day.
