Packrafting Gear Checklist for a Safe Bow River Adventure

 

Going off to the wild? Begin with the proper gears. Packing properly can either make or ruin your day or even, when going on a packraft down Bow River, depending on how fast the conditions can shift. As you splash around on smooth passages or scrape down miniscule rapids, the right kit will make sure you are safe and comfortable. The checklist of packrafting equipment will assist newcomers and adepts in packing their gear to get a memorable experience in Canada.

Packraft First

Your most essential gear is a packrafting gear checklist. Select a lighter, premium quality and fit the weight, kind of a river and the load you want to carry. MRS packrafts are durable and portable, so we recommend that people use them at Camping Hiking Adventure. They can easily be carried along hiking trails and yet strong to withhold Canadian rivers.

Other stuff you will need:

●        Inflation bag or pump Light weight and efficient.

●        Repair kit- Mishaps are unavoidable. Never be unprepared.

●        Storage bag- Makes your equipment clean and small.

Bow River is an unpredictable river as far as currents and weather are concerned, so you should pack a stable and responsive raft.

Paddle, PFD, and Safety Gear

The selection of the paddle is also crucial, just like the raft. Take a fibreglass or carbon fibre collapsible paddle; they are light and durable.

Personal Flotation Device (PFD) will not be negotiable. Select a PFD that is suitable for paddling, easily moves, and has some safety features such as reflective panels.

Helmet might not be required during the smooth sections, but for rapids or any new part of the Bow, then it is a good accessory.

Don’t forget:

●        Whistle- To give an alert.

●        Throw rope - This is needed to rescue.

●        A dry bag is used to maintain the safety of clothes and electronics.

When going out in the wild and exploring rivers, the number one priority is safety.

Schimpf Tissue Clothing Clothing The Pre-Conditioned Clothing. There are various clothes made to suit the conditions that are about to change.

You can be surprised by the weather in Canada. On rivers and mountains, be prepared for sun, rain, or sudden cold. Here is what you wear and take:

●        Fast-drying bottoms - No cotton, synthetic, or wool is ppreferred

●        Mid-layer insulating - Fabrications such as fleece or down jackets.

●        Waterproof shell excludes wind and rain.

●        Water, sandals, or shoes: Hold and dry fast.

●        Warm hat and gloves.Even in summer, Bow River can get cold.

The Camping Hiking Adventure stores have consistency with secure and lightweight outwears to which we have tested ourselves over the years of traveling and adventure.

Essentials for Camping

Sleep on the river? You would need light equipment that does not add weight to you when portaging or hiking.

Having a packrafting inventory list:

●        Bivy sack or light tent- This is small and quick to pitch.

●        Bags and sleeping pad- Rated according to anticipated temperature.

●        Camp stove and fuel Tip- Try to stick with compact stoves and fuel.

●        Utensils and cookware are all terrific.

●        Food and water- Dehydrated food is space saving and make sure to bring a filter and pure water tablets.

Each thing that you carry will make it heavier; select what is important. We are a family-owned store that believes in gears that deserve the space in your pack.

Special Bonus Features

Sometimes a little thing would count the most:

●        Headlamp/torch- Hands-free light to use in nighttime activities.

●        First aid kit: Describe it based on the needs of your group.

●        Multi-tool - To repair and perform duties in the camps.

●        Bug spray and sunscreen-Protect yourself.

●        Map, compass, or GPS Offline: It is best to have a map, a compass or a GPS (especially when offline).

The issue of navigational skills is a major factor that comes in when packrafting Bow River, it is a twisting and wavy river with altering banks. Remember not to use only memory and phone signals.
