    Boot/Glove Questions

    GrantK - this is excellent feedback. Thank you. The Quests have been so comfortable that I was wondering why they were never listed for the mountain hunting. Your explanation helps. Ordered a pair of Crispis and if those do not work/fit, I will try the la Sportiva's or Scarpas. Thank you

    Puffies

    Thank you ccc. This is where I am getting confused. I am a northeast hunter that tracks deer (Northern Maine). Generally I don't get bothered by the cold. I would have just gone with a Kenai jacket - far lighter than my wool jacket from the northeast. The guides and outfitters recommend the...

    Oh man - you are killing me. Too much to think about but this makes sense. I have a 15 degree bag, probably dont want to go warmer than that. I was thinking i would be in socks long johns and shirt for sleeping.

    Puffies

    Great question. I planned a base layer, and the kenai jacket. I was trying to figure out if i needed puffy over the kenai. Or the kenai over the puffy.
