Hey people, 

Uri and I have made this list of stuff you should have for the climb. Please put the amount of things you have in each box, so if someone has spare equipment, we can lend it to others. Specially stuff like crampons and ice axes that some of you probably won't need again and it's not worth buying. Also, we have put a link to almost every item to a web page where they sell it. THEY ARE ONLY ORIENTATIVE, of course you don't need to buy what we put there, but it gives you an idea of what it is (and how much it is). I tried to pick pages that you could put in english or french, so you can more or less read the specifications. For those that don't have so much material, I know that it's very expensive, but don't panic. First, I just put the first ones I found; I am sure you can find cheaper stuff.  But don't be stingy either, specially with warm clothing. Keep in mind that the temperature at the summit is of around -10°C, with a chill of -20°C, but if bad weather comes in it can drop quite a lot. Also, it's always very windy. This means that at least you need to have a good water/wind resistant layer, good boots, good gloves/mitten and a decent sleeping bag. The rest is negotiable. 

If you want, before buying anything too expensive email us (oriol...@gmail.com, eud...@correig.net) and we'll tell you what. Also, if you go to a decent sports shop and tell them what do you need and what you need it for I am sure they will help you and advise you better than us. 

 

See you soon!

Oriol and Eudald
