Good questions. Waist packs can be handy for if you have larger items to tote around, but IMO if you can avoid taking any pack at all then that's best. Having a jacket that is waterproof/breathable and has lots of pockets is the most common way to go. As for which pack I recommend, I honestly do not have a personal favorite, but I hear people are happy with dakine, mountain smith.I think the coolest thing you can get is a
CamelBak Lumbar Pack. They get rave reviews from owners. I may have to get one of these myself :)As for the goggles, the best tint shade for everyday use is a light brown or rose. These will ensure decent vision in low-light situatio
