I take with me 3 pairs of shoes with a GORE-TEX membrane, 2-3 sets of clothes and, without fail, pants and a jacket with GORE-TEX. It is not a fact that I will have time to use everything, but these things should always be in reserve - as a last resort, I can share with someone, ”Petrov says about the equipment.
