================
THINGS TO BRING:
================
Next thing on the survival menu: make sure you have enough cash and convert it to Canadian before you leave. I normally suggest you bring about $150 - $200 depending on how early you plan on getting in. The cash machine can run out and I don't know how well it works with American bank accounts. ( $50/day early iirc ) Food also can get expensive.. Be ready for that
​
There are a few places you can get food along the way, Kelwona is good, Castlegar is great ( No frills sells cheap food.. vegis can be meh, but for dirt cheap thats where I hit up ) Nelson is out of the way but has a "membership free bulk store" called Wholesale club.. It works but might be too large for one person
​
Canadian tire will sell cheap coolers ( styrofoam etc ) so you can pick that up drop some ice in and go. Personally i hate suggesting styrofoam but you do what you need to.
​
To pack your bag to save the maximum space, ROLL your clothes then push them into ziplock freezer bags. you can easily fit 2 - 3x the amount into a bag, depending on the size of your backpack and how long you will be there it can make it much easier to fit everything. Also bring a bathing suit in a spare bag. Toss it into the bag before tossing it into your backpack as you leave so it won't stink up everything.
​
For clothing, shorts and tshirts work great, Lots of people love to dress up with costumes.. Now, it does get a bit chilly at night if you are not at the stages. A pair of pants and a hoodie is a good idea, ALSO KNOW, there is always a chance it could rain. so be ready for that. Normally it doesn't last long but you could get wet.
​
( I will link my basic hiking setup at the bottom, I've collected this stuff over years but I can make it about 5-7 days with this, obviously you don't need everything but thats what I take hiking )
​
Make sure to bring a GOOD pair of shoes for walking. When it gets dark, the paths become.. Sketchy. during the day sandals works but I always perfered my walking shoes. Water shoes are also AMAZING. The river is rockey.. Well.. only rocks.. So having something you can walk though it is super nice. You can do it bare foot and I have many times but its not always the most comfortable of things.

For packing, I used a North Face XXL Base Camp duffel bag. Did you get a luggage scale? I did, and it really really helped me make the most of my packing. I also use it for backpacking too, to help measure my gear loadout.
Wagons: I bought a Sekey folding wagon with bigass moon rover tires, but the Amazon listing got changed to patio umbrellas and I don't see them on there at all anymore, so... ?
Here's one that looks almost identical, but with extra bells and whistles that you may or may not want. Looks legit though:
r/http://a.co/d/5GVL2n3
There's also this wagon that, although it doesn't have the oversize tires, is a double decker design that would be helpful for carrying more gear:
r/http://a.co/d/iQhWDDO
As for seating, I have one of these that I brought with, and it's easy enough to fit in a duffel bag, cheap, and light:

REI also makes a really comfy collapsible backpacking chair that is cheaper than comparable ones from Helinox, and more comfortable IMO:
https://www.rei.com/product/877258/rei-co-op-flexlite-chair
Hammocks are always a great idea too. The Hennessy Hammocks mentioned before are great for camping, but if you just want something cheap and casual for chilling while camping, I've been really happy with this company:
https://www.bearbuttteam.com/products/hammock-combo-pack
I mentioned this in my post, but I've found Dubs to be better than the Earasers at half the price. Earasers are still good, but for half price I could get something more comfortable with similar quality.
He was a really great guy and has been getting some amazing bird's eye footage that gives a whole new level of enchantment to Shambhala from that unique perspective. I wasn't bothered by it since to me the Phantom drones are essentially flying toys that have a GoPro on them. It's probably not fair to call them drones as that word evokes manless fighter jets raining down hellfire missiles on innocent people in the Middle East.
I'll provide some different input since the thread seems to predominantly be JBL - I have really really enjoyed my Sony Xb30. They updated the model and light show slightly since I bought it so you'll get a new version, and the sound quality is really good... the bass is HEAVY. Plus, you get a color changing light ring and strobes on the side! It's a kickass speaker and it is hefty enough to bring the sound but light and portable enough to be tossed in a backpack. It's only $120! I love it.
I have this one: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00IDA694A/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Great battery life, rugged, durable, water resistant. Big fan of the sound quality from it too. I throw it in my bag when I go snowboarding and it takes a battering and still good.
I wear similar Etymotic ones to every show and they're the best! I always bring extras for people just in case, cuz Shams will definitely blow your eardrums!
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0015WJQ7A/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&th=1
What about Dubs?
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NW1IZ5Q/ref=s9_acsd_al_bw_c_x_1#productDescription_secondary_view_div_1492681644597
I want earplug that safely protect me from Shambhala sound but also want to retain quality/hear voices of people around me? Is Dubs good at both? If not what is a good alternative.
They're usually hot. Sometimes, the hot water runs out and they are... er... mountain fresh. Quite cold, but it's exhilarating. There are also times when the showers are shut down because the water table is low.
If you're one of those, "I must shower every day" people (I certainly am!) then you should invest in a solar shower. These bad boys are super cheap, hold about 10L of water and can... kind of substitute for a shower. You'll need a tree or something tall too strap it to.
I have one of these and it's awesome! Plenty of space to stash stuff underneath too. It is pretty big/heavy but it's worth it.
I love my Etymotic ER-20s. They're designed to filter out all frequencies equally (and Etymotic has a stellar reputation for frequency response with their earphones) so you can still hear people talking well etc. They have a small size and a large size. The easiest place to get them from is Amazon (~$15) - small or large ... also in colours!.
Eatbuddies are similar but have a smaller profile (the ER-20s stick out of your ear a bit, though I don't mind and no one ever notices). They also seem to be a bit more expensive and don't publish a frequency chart like this one for the ER-20s, so I can't speak to the sound accuracy.
No idea about decibel levels, but The Village has a 200 000 watt speaker system. So it can be earnestly described as "seriously fucking loud"
That said, I have these and they work great:
https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B0044DEEU6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
[Earasers] (https://www.amazon.com/Earasers-HEM001-Musicians-Plugs-Medium/dp/B00E2D9HAA/ref=sr_1_1?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1468299783&sr=1-1&keywords=earasers) for sure. They won't block out quite as much as some of the others but I have yet to find a set that protects from as much of a frequency range without sacrificing quality.
I find a lot of value in covering my tent with these (shiny side out) to reflect the sun and heat. I usually sleep during the hottest part of the day so this helps immensely, even in the (mostly) shady shambhalodging bassics tents. Bring string and tape to affix them.
