What Dan Packs
Dan's logged hundreds of miles here. These are the essentials that actually matter:
Black Diamond Trekking Poles
EssentialDan swears by these for steep descents. Your knees will thank you.
Katadyn Water Filtration System
Most hikers underestimate how much water they need. This is lighter than carrying it all.
Darn Tough Merino Hiking Socks
EssentialCotton kills. Merino regulates temperature and prevents blisters on long hikes.
