02/25/2021 07:08PM That’s about what I had at the start of my trip last March. I went with light weight pants and sweater over base layer and light breathable gloves, with wind layer accessible. In half an hour the sweater was off. The hard part is boots. And if the sun is out, keeping feet dry will take some effort. |

02/25/2021 06:58PM A nice long sleeved wicking shirt and a button down wool shirt over that. My pants would be my woolen bibs. All of that breaths really well. With the wind being at a breeze, I would also probably have my canvas anorak on, but would probably take it off after I got heated up. Depends on the cooling of the breeze to the heating up ratio. As you probably know, during the winter your enemy is sweat. |

02/25/2021 05:07PM Looking at the weather report for next Friday,(high of about 29 F. and 5 to 10 mph winds), and we will be getting started about 11:00 pulling pulks and hoc skis. What would you experts start out wearing for the day? Thanks Captn. |
