In theory I have everything now:
Boots x 2, Crampons, Sleeping Bag, Down Jacket, Weatherproof Jacket, Windproof fleece, Windproof tousers, Sunglasses x 3, Gloves x 6, Ice Axe, Medical Kit, Antibiotics, Diamox, Camera, Tape Slings, Prussic Loops, Harness, Sunblock, Hat, Tickets, Visa, Water bottles, Knife, Duct tape, Dry sacks, Clothes, Socks, Foot powder, Hydration salts, Energy Gels, Karabiners, Goggles, Balaclava x 2 + some other bits and pieces
There just remains one minor problem. How the hell is it going to fit into my bag? The current solution would appear to involve me being the Doctor. They say packing is an art form but they didn't tell me I need to be Michaelangelo to participate in this trip. And I have some things to help - can highly recommend taking a selection of dry sacks because it saves your gear getting waterlogged but also allows you to group it together which makes for speedier location of objects and quicker repacking every morning when you de-camp.
