Okay, I have read through the past articles about packing and still have some questions. I’m trying to find the cheapest stuff and what will work the best. here goes:

1. What kind of shoes are people bringing? (just tennis shoes and sandals or something else?)

2. Do I need my own tent and what size?

3. Do I need a sleeping pad along with my sleeping bag?

Umm… I probably have more but that’s all I can think of for right now. Thanks
