== Wolf Project - Personal Camping Gear Checklist
==
Remember: 1. All items must fit into two canoe packs (approx. 2’x 3’) and a backpack. 2. Art, costumes, musical instruments are separate. 3. LABEL YOUR BELONGINGS WITH YOUR NAME and keep your things together on move-in and move-out day
A Plea for Simplicity - Creating art in the wilderness requires that we leave the comforts of home behind. Remember everything has to be transported in by canoe. Think essential, just what you might actually use. Think small... a smaller tube of toothpaste, a smaller towel, a less bulky sweater. Think multi-use... soaps, clothing, gear.
PERSONAL BACK-PACK LIST: items you may need in a hurry while canoeing to your camp site. Water bottle (filled with drinking water), sun hat, sunglasses, sun block, lip balm, rain jacket and pants, (sturdy water shoes or sandals), band aids (for blisters & cuts), portaging shoes (sturdy footwear), toilette paper in a water proof / ziplock bag.
