Packing For The Trip


All of your gear and provisions are weighed. North Caribou Camps has a weight limit of 70 lbs. per person.

Each member of your group should use medium sized duffel bags rather than super large ones for easy loading.

Everyone will need a sleeping bag and your personal clothing and toiletries. Follow the list provided for the basics we feel you will need for your outpost vacation.

One medium sized cooler for every three people is more than enough.

Keep tackle to a minimum. We have provided a few suggestions on our 'Fishing Page' to ensure you have an excellent fishing week. Also, rods should be in cases.

Please do not pack your gear or clothing in garbage bags. They can often get mistaken for trash by the pilot or camp hand.
