  • The exact footwear decision: trail runners vs. boots, with the real answer
  • Every toiletry, document, and emergency item — with weights listed
  • What to buy in Puerto Natales vs. what to bring from home
  • The one item most people forget that turns a miserable wet day into a manageable one
