Rokslide strikes again and I currently have the kuiu zip-offs on their way, as well as a full set of the chugach, AND the kifaru 20 slick bag. Glad you mentioned the gloves though, I was wondering if those were necessary.I’d add a pair of KUIU zip-off long johns. Creek crossings can be done with your Chugach rain gear taped firmly or laces wrapped around your boots. Snow seal (whatever treatment you prefer) the heck out of your boots. Decent durable gloves as you will frequently touch the rocks with your hands on a goat hunt....KUIU guide gloves are good.
I like a 15* F treated down bag from now through mid-Oct. I just add layers as required of my usual hunting clothes. I love the KUIU zip off puffy pants around camp, in the bag if it is super cold etc. also glassing. Take a 3 or 4 section piece of a Thermarest Z-lite pad for a glassing pad and to kneel on around camp. Good luck!
