Yosemite Corporate Trips

Corporate Events - Sample Gear List

  • Sleeping Bag: As you will, not be carrying your sleeping bag, any bag that keeps you warm will do. Temperatures rarely drop below freezing.
  • Ground Pad: Inflatable thermarest style are among the best, though foam pads will work as well.
  • Tent: A tent should be in working condition. Three season tents are recommended.
  • **Note: SYMG can provide all of the above if indicated on your registration form.
  • Day Pack: Needed to carry any personal items you want along for the hikes as well as two liters of water.
  • Shoes: Bring a pair of lightweight hiking boots that are broken in. Also bring a pair of Tevas or comfortable shoes for around camp.
  • Pants: Long comfortable cotton pants, or jeans for sitting around the campfire.
  • Shorts: A couple pairs of comfortable shorts for hiking.
  • Underwear: 2 pair are generally sufficient.
  • Shirts: Bring a long and a short sleeve, one with a collar and a thermal underwear top.
  • Sweater / Jacket: Fleece, pile, or wool jackets and pullovers are best. This item should be something to keep you warm at night, and comfortable enough to hike in if it's cool during the days.
  • Rain Coat / Shell: Gore-Tex or a similar fabric. Wind and rain resistant.
  • Baseball Cap: A baseball cap or full brimmed hat is good for sun protection.
  • Wool or Fleece Hat: This is an essential item. It can get cold at night and a warm hat will be your savior should the weather get cold & windy.
  • Sunglasses: Lenses that have ultra violet protection.
  • Towel: Some sort of cloth for washing needs.
  • Personal Toiletries: Sunscreen, chapstick, insect repellent, lotion, toothbrush, toothpaste, etc.
  • Medications: Bring any special medications you need.
  • Flashlight or Headlamp: Extra batteries.
  • Water Bottle: A bottle should not leak, have a large mouth and hold at least one liter. If you do not own one recycle a plastic Gatorade container.
  • Book / Journal: Not necessary, but you may be able to enjoy some quiet time prior to sleep or during the day.
  • Camera: And film.

The above is by no means a complete or exhaustive list. If you have questions, call SYMG and ask. Remember, SYMG brings all group cooking gear, stoves, water filters, maps, matches, compasses, emergency/first aid gear, and toilet paper.
