Preparation

before you go..............

Revise the chapter on glaciation in your text book and from the notes you took in class.

For the trip..................

Wear warm clothes - several thin layers are better than two thick layers

bring waterproofs - or at the very least, a rain proof jacket

        even if the weather looks good near school, it can still be quite cold in the mountains

Wear a pair of strong shoes - if you have walking boots, all the better.

        There's a lot of walking involved so it's important to have comfortable, waterproof footwear

You will need

A notepad

pencil

Plastic bag

some zip-loc bags (like at an airport) (about 5) or other containers for soil/rock/vegetation samples

A mobile phone with a camera (or just  camera) is also useful.

Have a good breakfast

Bring a snack for energy (chocolate bar is good)

Bring something for lunch
