Hello!

Yes, the waterproof jacket is pretty essential I reckon. You don't need anything fancy as long as it keeps you dry if there is a shower or something like that. You can pick up waterproofs pretty cheaply at army surplus type stores, or camping shops (although they tend to stock the more fancy types).

Yes, I'm mildly paranoid about getting hypothermic - its very easily done as you've noticed! I've done tons and tons of fieldwork/camping/hiking/etc and seriously, if you get wet you get very cold even if its the middle of summer. Well, maybe if its not like 100 degress or something. But even in hot desert types of places it gets really cold at night.

Anyway. How about a compass (to add to your list)? Although I don't know if you'll be doing any hiking type stuff.

Anyway, kind regards

Meri
