Adventure Trip Gear Information


Trip Gear
Making sure that you have all of the right gear for your trip can be a bit daunting. Listed below are all of the trips that are going out this summer. While a lot of the gear is the same from trip to trip there are specific things for each trip. Make sure that you click on the right list for your trip. If you have questions about how to go about buying your gear, please click here: Buying Equipment.

If you have any questions please email the Program Manager.

2010 Gear Lists (links to a PDF)
These lists do not include clothes to be worn while on the bus, van, or at Camp Echo.

Any items that trippers do not take with them on the trip will be kept locked in storage at camp and labeled with the camper's name. At the end of the session the bags will be put on the buses and held at the YMCA in Evanston for you to pick up at your convenience.

  • Radios, televisions, computers, calculators, PDAs
  • Cell phones, electronic games, or pagers (click here for more information)
  • Digital music players with Wi-Fi or video capability (click here for more information)
  • Hair dryers
  • Cases of bottled water
  • Food, other than what you can consume on the bus ride
  • Glass containers (aerosol cans discouraged but permitted)

  • Valuable jewelry or keepsakes
