285: Everything I Pack for Mountain Vacations

Packing for a mountain vacation can feel a little trickier than packing for other types of trips. The weather can change quickly throughout the day, which means you need layers for warmth, flexibility for shifting conditions, and clothing that works just as well on a trail as it does exploring a town afterward. After many years of traveling almost exclusively to mountain destinations, I've developed a reliable packing system that keeps things functional without overpacking. In this episode, I'm sharing exactly what goes into my suitcase for mountain trips — from my go-to layering strategy and footwear choices to the small gear and accessories that make a big difference once you're there. If you've ever stood in front of your closet wondering how to pack for changing mountain weather without bringing everything you own, this episode will help simplify the process and give you a practical framework you can use for your own trips. → GET YOUR FREE MOUNTAIN VACATION PACKING GUIDE ← → CHECK OUT OTHER FREEBIES FROM WILD HAIR TRAVELS ← Connect w/ Angela on Instagram LISTEN BACK: Episode 118: A Destination Where the Hiking is Definitely "Worth It" Episode 154: 4 Signs It's Time for a Nature Fix Episode 256: What to Know About a Montana Vacation
