Mountain Adventure: Packing items

Went to Center Point shopping center this evening to do some last minute purchases for my mountain climb and, well, I got almost all that I need for the adventure.

Here's what i ticked off this evening from my list:
  • Wool socks (2 - long and short)
  • Trekking poles (a pair - antishock) - this definitely would come in handy on descent.
  • Diamox -Acetazolamide (Pills for altitude sickness - 8 tablets)
  • Long John (two-piece) - just so i don't have to use many layers of clothings, also to lighten my pack.
  • Head Beanie
  • Chocolates (Mars & Snickers - 2 each) - for energy

Others such as jacket, poncho, boots and backpack--I've got them all from previous adventure. I now only need to get a new headlamp (the one i got in 2007 has malfunctioned) and triple-A batteries for it. Ah, and gloves. A Thinsulate.

Packing tonight. As light as possible.
