Suggested Clothing List

Alaska Coastal weather and weight are major considerations when planning your clothing list. Comfortable, lightweight and functional clothes are important for wilderness travelers who can be exposed to all types of weather conditions. The following lists are suggestions to guide you. Many of you will have your own personal preferences and be aware of what your body requires.

All guests must pay particular attention to the weight and luggage size limitations which are imposed by the
Air Taxi operator. They will weigh both you and your luggage when you check in. Luggage not needed at the
camp should be stored in Homer.

Note: Hallo Bay's Master Guide is a firm believer that subtle, natural colors are the most reasonable choices.

What Not To Bring

__Absolutely do not bring any type of Bear spray, pepper spray or Bear mace.

(possession of any pepper spray/mace type products on the aircraft or in the field with Hallo Bay guides will
cause the trip to be terminated immediately without refund). The nature of the flight from Homer to Katmai
may require the aircraft to fly at 10,000 feet at which point pepper spray/mace containers may discharge
without warning incapacitating the pilot thus placing the aircraft and all passengers in a deadly situation.
