Make sure to take something cotton to sit around the fire in.
I like how you listed all the camera equipment first :haha:
Other than that, I think you got it. Make sure you bring your dry bag and a pillow. Also some meds you need, I usually bring sleeping pills :cool2: |

Hmm, should I bring a folding chair?
Maybe I'll bring some nyquil just to knock me out at night. Other than that, I'm over my light cold. |

I just realized;
If I die on this trip, my wife probably won't let me get out quite as often anymore. |
