How to use this list

Start with the passport or accepted travel ID, guide booking confirmation, climbing insurance details, guide contact details, and accommodation confirmation.

Pack the small duffel with clothing, toiletries, evening layer, and other overnight items. Keep two water bottles, lunch, snacks, sunscreen, headlamp, and personal medication in the daypack.

Do not bring technical equipment because it is on another climber's standard list. This list repeatedly limits gear to guide approval. Avoid forgetting approach shoes, which are separate from climbing shoes. Do not assume protected areas or monastery surroundings allow every activity or access route; follow the guide and local rules.
