    Do you plan on staying in huts or fly camping?

    The basics for a couple of nights would be:

    Pack with water proof liner (or rubbish bag)
    Sleeping bag + mat
    Cooker and gas with lighter spare matches
    Billy knife, fork, spoon
    Base layers ie thermals
    Mid layer fleece top, pants optional
    Beanie, gloves
    Water proof jacket
    Spare pair of socks
    Ammo 12 rounds should be plenty with a bit of fudge factor.
    Knife
    Binos + rangefinder
    Torch
    Something to chuck your meat into
    Gps, compass, map
    Water bottle or bottles
    Basic first aid kit

    Food is entirely up to you, I usually have porridge for breakfast and a coffee. Museli bars as snacks noodles for lunch or maybe more snacks and freeze dry meals for dinner.

    If fly camping you can get away with a fly for spring and summer but the weather can still turn quick up top.

    This is by no means a complete and exhaustive list but it's the basics that you'll need and Is what I take.
