The field trip program includes many outdoor activities, therefore the following items should be included in your luggage:

• rain gear
• hiking boots or a very good pair of hiking shoes
• personal hygiene items (toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo etc.).
• a towel (bed sheets are provided in Bozen but towels are not).
• sufficient clothing for the trip (unless you want to do laundry in a laundromat). Remember that the weather can be very unpredictable. You can expect temperatures in Bozen and Venice anywhere between 10 and 30 Celcius. Rain is also a possibility. At higher elevations, it may be colder, bring a fleece or equivalent.
• a hat (the sun is stronger at higher elevations).
• a day pack for use in the areas that we will be visiting.
• any required medication

• a small clear plastic ruler. If you do not have one already, I am pretty sure you can get one at any dollar store.
• Your in-field exercises will require that you have something for writing notes and sketching. Pens and pencils will also prove useful!
• a camera with film or a digital camera
• Anything else you think you need (within reason).

Should you forget something --- our destinations are developed countries and you can probably purchase what you need.
