Guidelines for Packing Camping Gear for Transport on Island Packer Boats
Pack your gear in a manner that will allow you to hike into the campground. Please do not have items dangling from your pack when you load it for transport. If you desire to tie extra items to your main pack, such as shoes, water bottles, lanterns, hiking poles... do this after arriving on the island. Island campgrounds are all accessed on dirt trails, Santa Cruz and Santa Rosa have dirt roads that are relatively flat, all other island campgrounds have elevation gains of 200-500 feet up to the campgrounds on more narrow foot trails.
