Pack Light
A few weeks prior to the tour, GTI will send you:
A hiking backpack with a hydration pack
LED flashlight (AAA batteries x3)
Luggage tags
NIV Bible and Tour map
The hiking backpacks are very nice, but if you prefer, you are welcome to use your own day pack instead. Remember that you will be hiking in extremely hot weather, in direct sunlight, carrying 2 or more quarts of water.
