The layers, boots and small things that make cold rim nights comfortable — and what to leave at basecamp.
01Layers, not one big jacket
The rim swings from hot sun to near freezing in a few hours. Thin thermal layers, a fleece and a wind shell let you adjust as you climb.
02Boots and socks
Bring boots you have already walked in, with ankle support for the loose summit scree. Pack one dry pair of socks just for camp.
03What to leave at basecamp
Laptops, spare clothes and anything you won’t need on the trail can stay with us in Sembalun. A light daypack makes every hour easier.
