[QUOTE="Wanfalt1, post: 1392322, member: 101097"] Cotton is the worst thing you can put on your body. There are a ton of cheap polyester clothes you can purchase. Thin long underwear is wonderful. Even if it's hot it is not too hot. Rain is common along with snow that time of year it can go from hot to cold very quickly. All the new clothing is wonderful. I think everyone is right on with Kuiu and Sitka. I only have experience with Sitka but it's not my favorite. I like wools socks, there is no other. Fleece as an outer layer dries instantly but makes you feel cold if there is no wind barrier. An outer layer that is wind and waterproof is a must. However you most likely won't wear it when the weather is nice. Plan on dressing warm in the morning and evening and packing the rest around during the day. A poncho liner is perfect for a windblocker when you are loitering and it makes a great ground cloth for quartering your meat. A face mask is lightweight and easy to pack and will make morning sits in the wind bearable. Cotton kills! [/QUOTE]
