Things to Pack

You are NOT backpacking all your belongings across Orcas Island.

When you arrive on Orcas, your things will be shuttled from the ferry landing to each lodging, secured and waiting for you at the end of each day. 

You are bringing your favorite daypack to carry snacks, water, change of socks, extra layer, camera, binoculars, journal and rain gear(think-dayhike).

The second and third day we will be in Eastsound, within a half mile to a Laundromat, if needed.
