Spring/Fall Clothing
(30°F to 50°F) I almost always carry this layer.
One July I experienced 30 degree temps in the NC mountains. I usually use
fleece or polypropylene and wear my hiking shorts outside since this layer
doesn't have pockets. The only time I haven't carried this stuff was
summer hiking in Louisiana. |

REI PowerStretch Top |
Super thin, warm fleece. Most compressible
fleece I have found. Made from Polartec PowerStretch Fleece . My old
favorite was normal weight Army polypropylene long underwear. |

Polypropylene
sock liners |
Black thin sock liner by Brigade Quartermaster.
I carry one pair as my base layer. In cooler weather I like to have a fresh
pair. Combined with my Seal Skinz socks, they make a good cool weather
system. |

Polypro Glove Liners |
Ultra-lightweight polypropylene knitted glove liner is worn for greatest
moisture transfer and insulation. Worn under mittens but good for finer camp
work for short periods without the mittens on. |
