My Climbing & Mountaineering Gear List
Last Updated: May 2026
I’ve compiled my complete personal gear inventory here with photos and honest reviews based on real-world use. I check this list before every trip to make sure I haven’t forgotten anything. I’ve added my experiences, pros, cons, and tips — hopefully they’ll help you make better gear decisions.

One person carries the 3 kg tent, and the tent partner carries the 2+ kg poles — that’s what I personally do. There is a saying in this community: “Carry like a mule, live like a king.”
