Spiti is unforgiving. Pack wrong, and you'll be miserable. Pack right, and it's a breeze.
Clothing Layers
The key is layering. You need:
- Base Layer: Thermals (Top and Bottom).
- Mid Layer: Fleece jacket or wool sweater.
- Outer Layer: Windproof and waterproof down jacket.
Essential Gear
- Sunglasses: The sun in high altitude is harsh.
- Sunscreen: SPF 50+. You will tan quickly.
- Power Bank: Batteries drain faster in cold.
- Postpaid SIM (BSNL/Jio): Prepaid often doesn't work.
