Here is my planned clothing, shelter and sleeping insulation for Katahdin to Monson last three weeks of August. Will I be warm enough? I have a low resting heart rate (43) and doc says that makes me cold natured. Also listed are some options.
Please chime in with your thoughts/suggestions.
Clothes Worn
Quick dry hiking shorts
DriFit tee shirt
Coolmax cycling socks
NB trail runners
DriFit baseball cap
Clothes Carried
Beartooth Merino Wool hoody
Marmot DriClime Windshirt
Patagonia Puffball vest
Smartwool liner socks 1 pair (sleeping)
Nylon running shorts
Ultra Light fleece balaclava
Headnet
Packa
Dry Ducks rain pants
Shelter/Sleeping
Edge rain fly
HH Adventure Racer
Go Lite Ultra 20 down top quilt
Two layer IX UQ with insul tubes
Options
JRB Stealth used as a TQ and around camp insulation. Replaces Go Lite TQ and Puffball vest.
Montball Alpine Light #5 40º bag instead of Go Lite TQ (lighter than Go Lite TQ).
JRB Stealth as UQ instead if IX UQ (heavier).
Thanks,
Dale
