Field Notes
Short, real-world tips and mini-checks. The stuff you remember halfway up a hill.
Quick wins
Condensation is normal — manage it
Ventilation beats “more waterproof”. Crack vents, avoid touching walls, and keep wet gear out of the sleeping area.
Pack by “first 15 minutes”
Keep headtorch, pegs, mallet, tarp, snacks, and a layer accessible. Setup becomes calmer instantly.
Meal planning saves weight
Duplicate ingredients across meals, use a spice micro-kit, and avoid “one-off” bulky items.
