Daily Equipment List for Outdoor Club
All equipment listed must accompany your child to ensure their well being and safety while outdoors in various weather conditions. It can get very cold in the summer months when it becomes wet, or windy. NO COTTON CLOTHING OF ANY KIND - Wet cotton does not insulate, and your kids will be cold and miserable.

Climbing Days:
Warm jacket, rain jacket, pants, tennis shoes, or boots (no sandals), 2x water bottles, hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, climbing shoes, chalk bag and harness (if you have them), lunch and enough snacks for a hard day of climbing at 10,000 ft above sea level!
