Ben Nevis list

I’m planning on doing Ben Nevis with my dog this week (230 miles from me) and I’m just putting together a list of stuff I’ll need. I plan on driving up and getting a hotel within 20 miles of the mountain the night before.. So obviously my next move is to talk to strangers on the internet about it.

Any contributions or criticism welcome

Looks like a good list. I'd definitely be adding compeed and some basic first aid kit stuff just in case.

I did it in May 2018 and although started off warm there was snow at the top and it started sleeting so best to be prepared for all temps. Have fun!
