Colorado first rifle 10-12k feet October 14-18 back country on foot. High exertion then sitting.
I have:
first lite Llano T for base layer (probably get another or a long sleeve to swap as needed)
Sitka Kelvin lite hoody (for glassing and maybe at night to make up for a marginal sleeping bag.
Kuiu Guide for outer shell
Some generic synthetic long john
EMS compass zip off pants (outer)
Kuiu Kenai zip offs-swap these for the long johns if really cold (these are a little small but I got them off the outlet so I'm stuck with them)
Un insulated boots with wool socks of varying weights
Kuiu Gaiters
I'm going to be getting some merino under wear for sure. Other than the addition of that, what would you recommend? I plan on taking a cheap emergency poncho or tarp if it rains for more than a little while. Expecting snow at that elevation and time of year anyway. Should I be looking for something to go between my base and my insulation?
What am I missing?
