Exploration Adventure Packing Lists

2025 XA trip packing lists:  Please click on your trip for a complete packing list.  As you prepare for your arrival at Hamilton, please remember to pack the items you’ll need for your trip separately.  Arrival day and move-in are busy, and you won't have much time to re-pack items between your arrival on campus and your trip's departure!

If you have any questions about these lists, please contact Ailis Hayden, Lila Cahill, and Michelle Wu, the XA interns, at xaintern@hamilton.edu.  If you are on an Outdoor Adventure Sampler trip, you can email Suki Aguirre, the OAS intern, at nso@hamilton.edu.
