As someone who goes to about -20F with only a small fraction of the pieces you have, I don't think lack of gear is your issue. What are some limitations in your system that you have found yourself? One suggestion is to lay it out by temp/use rather than which part of the system it is. That way you can see any potential holes or overlaps much easier and it can be based on your real-world use and experience.

I feel i might be missing a few pieces for big game. The Stratus/Fanatic are literally whitetail only series sitting in a tree, i'm trying to finalize the active Moose/Elk pursuits that locally here run 2 seasons. Early season which can see 40F to 75F, or down to the late season which run 30F to -40F depending on the year itself. I've got my Moose trip booked here and trying to setup my pack for 100lbs or less due to flight restrictions. Just want to make sure i've got it properly organized before i head up and not short on the proper gear

I've sold off some pieces but added others recently to fill what I felt was the gaps I was missing. I've never been a vest person but someone mentioned for me to give it a shot over my kutana hybrid just for that little bit extra wind break and slight warmth
