Today my mom and I are headed to this fest in CA! I’m writing this post after the fact as a reminder for what I packed and could have used, since I may well do this festival again 🙂
- visor
- winter hat
- hair ties (and sleeping hair tie)
- cotton gloves
- sunglasses
- Eddie Bauer 2-in-1 hip length coat (650 down puff layer under waterproof shell)
- hoodie
- 2 long sleeved tees
- t-shirt
- 3 pairs of leggings/yoga pants
- a pair of fleece lined leggings (could have used another pair and meant to pack them)
- joggers
- sweatpants
- kneehigh compression socks (for the flight there/back)
- anklet compression socks (could use ones with more compression…)
- novelty socks (could have used warmer boot socks)
- hiking boots
- hiking shoes
- Shade & Shore Neida sandals
- sunscreen (didn’t pack after sun care and needed it)
- a nice dinner outfit for 60’s °F
Honestly this festival was pretty easy to pack for, as the weather was about the same as we have in Cape May right now. We kept it simple, didn’t go anywhere overly fancy for dinner (although would have on hand a decent outfit for going out if desired). Arcata was pretty laid back though, and for the most part we unapologetically went from the field to food. Humboldt Co. was captivating, the festival was great, and I would consider a return, full day of travel both ways and all!
