My wife and daughter wear Ex Officio for bottoms as do my son and I. For a bra they wear from Duluth Trading Company Women's Plus Armachillo Cooling Longline Bra. They might have a slightly different version but they found these to be the most comfortable when we were outfitting. Not sure why we didn’t go Ex. officio for this but might not have been available because that was 2020 during full Covid. We all wear Duluth Trading company pants. Some are zip offs and some are not. I think at this point they don’t offer the zip off anymore. Men's DuluthFlex Dry on the Fly Relaxed Fit Cargo Pants Women's Dry on the Fly Bootcut Cargo Pants Shirt wise we all wear long sleeve button up shirts during the day on water. Men’s PFG Tamiami™ II Long Sleeve Shirt My wife and daughter I feel like wear Women’s PFG Bahama™ Long Sleeve Shirt, but the tamiama might be an option. In the evening we either switch to a dry button up shirt, or a quick dry long sleeve without buttons. Our dry pants are the same pants we wear on water just dry. That way if a malfunction happens you still have something decent to wear when on the move. Ryan
Smartwool makes full cushion socks in a compatible BSA uniform green, btw. I grabbed 4 pair on national sock day and got a 5th free. Almost never wear anything else in my scouting activities.
Paddling gloves are really important! I forgot to put mine on last year for a paddle off of knife and noticed right away that I was starting to chaffe and would have blistered. Can’t imagine how bad that would have felt on a long trip. I wear and my family all does as well the Kokatat Lightweight Hand Jacket Paddling Gloves. We’ve been pretty happy with them.
I would second the ExOfficio underwear for females. I used them last year at Philmont and they were great. Just a comment on the personal dry bag- you mention a 10L, however your picture of the yellow personal dry bag shows a 5L :-) Thank you for being so detailed - there isn't a lot of information out there for NT - headed there this summer!
Thank you for this very detailed video. This was extremely helpful to see video clips of things play out in actual circumstances to get a better sense of what we'll need to be prepared for. The video does a great job of explaining the aspects of how sometimes seemingly small things, if overlooked, could create a less-than-enjoyable trip. Thank you for taking the time to provide this great advice!

Awesome. Thanks for sharing!
I recommend ExOfficio underwear for females too. I've used them for multiple trips for both Norther Tier and Philmont.

Have a great trip! Its hard to have every little pic. Some folks seem to prefer a 5L. But a 5L or 10L will work.
