[QUOTE="mcseal2, post: 501655, member: 22030"] I bought that book a couple months ago, and agree it is excellent. I made a "Cliff Notes" packet off it and a half dozen other muley books also that I can print off and throw in my pack. I learned in college that I remember things much better if I type or write them also, especially if it is hunting or fishing information and not what I learned in most classes. I figured after a frustrating day pulling the 5 or 6 pages of notes out and reviewing them may give me more confidence in my current plan, or spark an idea for the next day. I picked up some Sitka Ascent pants, Celcius bibs, and the Nimbus jacket as well as a Marmot ultralight down jacket off ebay. The fit and stretch fabric is great, I am having trouble keeping myself from wearing the bibs for work on cool mornings. I also have some nice gaiters I can pack for snow. For boots I have been using the Danner Pronghorn's and replacing them every couple years. They are sure light and comfortable, but not the quality of what you guys are using. I want to get somewhere I can try on the higher end boots before buying any. My feet stay pretty warm, I rarely use over 400gr Thinsulate boots if I will be walking at all. Mostly I get by fine in 200gr boots. [/QUOTE]
