Colorado 2nd rifle Kryptek Clothing loadout

[Justramit]

I am planning first ever diy backpack elk hunt for colorado this october and was wondering if anyone that uses kryptek system has suggestion on what all to invest in and take for that time of year. I know I need a merino base layer but as far as pants and jackets and layers. What would you take?

I will tell you the basic list that I would take from my kryptek closet, but I have not hunted CO 2nd in Oct. So you would want someone with experience with both the clothing choices, and climatic conditions to sign off or comment on these suggestions.

Merino socks w/ a backup pair
Liteweight merino base layer top&btm
Midweight merino hoody top
Dalibor II jacket
Dalibor II pants or Ragnar pants
Kratos II synth puffy jacket
Kratos II synth zip off puffy pants
Kratos minus vest is usually in my pack
Poseidon packable rain gear (new full zip)
Petra gaiters
Merino glove liners (F/L)
Heavier gloves like B/D fleece
While I have all this and more in kryptek, I often mix other brands of clothing into the mix, doesnt matter if it matches or not. I am never without a sitka mountain jacket ever since I bought one, and my choice on merino is first light, mostly solid colors. Hope this helps with a kryptek gear list, and maybe someone will ride shotgun on it for CO 2nd R -Oct.
