I live in the mountains of interior Alaska. I can’t avoid sweating, even in extreme cold. (Wearing all the right gear) Just know when to slow down for a few minutes and open up the jacket to ventilate. I’ll even pull my hat for a bit to cool my coconut down then put the hat back on. I also work at sea in Alaska, I see lots of people that choose the wrong clothing for the conditions. Used to work in Antarctica and the Arctic on icebreakers too. Drink some water while you’re cooling off from exertion too.

I’ve worked construction in cold climates for the past 35 years. I fully agree with layering quality warming layers. Silk weight merino 1/4 zip base layers close to skin. Next layer a grid fleece with hood and also 1/4 zip. Next top layer a goose down coat long and finely a breathable/durable rip stop shell with lots of pockets at the chest full zip and a hood. A neck gator and hat that covers your ears. Face and eye pro. Bottom layers silk weight base next to skin carhartt cargo pants then carhartt coveralls with full leg side zippers. One pair of heavy weight wool socks and quality boots leather pack boots add a toe warmer on brutal cold days. Gloves are always a problem retrieving nails and small fasteners is difficult with heavy gloves. I do use them though in the brutal days. Black diamond works for me. I rotate gloves all day at lunch rotate socks. Have also spent years on telemark, alpine skiing, snowboarding, ice climbing in places such as Utah, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, and the Dakotas. All these layering systems serve well in extreme country with ever changing conditions. I use OR expedition gators and full zip bib shell full gortex. Bring a med kit some food high in calories and enough water In insulated carriers. Fire start kit, two Black Diamond headlamps with extra batteries. Keep your batteries and lamps in your coat pocket. A poncho and cord. All in a 35 liter Black diamond pack. Rope, harness, tubular webbing, draws,ice axes ice screws and or cams and nuts if required. Hiking poles shock corded so can’t come apart for buddy safety. I’m not an elite by any means! I just enjoy the outdoors. Have fun be safe and invest in good gear.

Great advise. Experience is priceless. If you are starting to feel hot or cold, you are already late in adding or removing layers. Keeping hydrated is essential. That is overlooked many times, especially when hunting from a stand. It can be difficult to remember to hydrate when it's -20 degrees. For base layers, I try to find affordable silk....kind of an oxymoron but some are more affordable than others. Silk is EXCELLENT at wicking moisture away from the body. My wool choice is 100% merino or merino/alpaca for sub-zero. Down is great if you can keep it dry. I add a waterproof shell over my down but it makes a lot of noise. Great for hiking or hauling but I seldom use down while hunting. I try to stick with wool outer layers while hunting. Overall, I find it easier to manage my temperature with merino. I seldom "feel" cold or hot with a heavy merino outer layer. I stumbled onto a really light-weight and WARM wool gloves....Brushtail possum wool from New Zealand. I really love those gloves but they are a bit fragile. Great mid layer. I know merino and silk are expensive. But the 1st time you use it, you'll know why many people love and recommend it.

If I may, I wanted to add a caveat for those just starting into the outdoors. A lot of the gear can be expensive, wool is no exception. It takes years to accumulate piece by piece. So don't fret too much. I would recommend trying to get a light weight upper base layer first, then lower long johns; this will help with smell and wicking sweat away from your body. Cotton is rough to wear when it is cold and it gets wet. However, it is extremely warm and durable. As someone who lives in the sopping humidity of the southeast year round, cotton will work in our wet winters if you are smart. Use it as a mid/outer layer, think flannel shirts and canvas pants. This will protect your more expensive wool base layers while providing a durable layer that can be protected from precipitation with a rain jacket or poncho.

As always, Clay, your advice is practical, logical, and backed up by long experience, which makes it VERY valuable. I couldn't help but smile when you talked extensively about the importance of layering, which my late mother (who was certainly not a hunter!) drilled into me before I was ten years old. Two questions: We're right on the same page as far as goose down is concerned: 1. My experience has shown me that it offers more warmth for less weight but is a disaster when wet. But do you use and recommend any synthetic down substitutes-like PrimaLoft, for example? How do you feel about widely used Thinsulate, which essentially has no loft? 2. You didn't address synthetic fleece (a.k.a. Polarfleece), which I use a lot for mid-layers because it's comfortable, it's light in weight, and it dries VERY quickly. Do you avoid fleece, and-if so-should I? On another front, I know that the late-season, black-powder cow hunt is your focus now, but are you going to do some late whitetail hunts in the mountains and foothills? I have TRULY enjoyed those trips in past years and hope to be a "guest" on more of them in the near future. All the best, Chris (in Maine)
@filipiversen1331 Жыл бұрын
Something to consider for drying something in your sleeping bag, like wet socks or shoe inlays: if you have a down bag you want to avoid this if it is very cold. When your body heats these items it would turn into moisture that could get trapped in your sleeping bag. With down this is something you want to avoid generally as a sleeping bag is hard to dry.

Where was this video when I needed it 10 or 12 years ago. Really covering all the basics. I think working out a laying system that works for you is very individual as to what pieces in particular work the best. Only thing I'll add is winter in the mountains is a different beast. You have to be very proactive, and think about what your going to need, BEFORE you need it. The mountains don't tolerate a fool for long, especially during winter. Oh and gloves suck. The exception being wool gloves, but if your rocking those fancy insulated gloves, your in for a "treat" if your hands are sweating, you take them off, and then the temperature drops - and it drops FAST in the evening. Any insulated glove that has a non removable liner in it, is a shitty choice. I've come to like chopper mitten's with wool inserts, wool gloves, OR some of synthetic single layer mid weight insulted gloves. (kings camo makes them) They key thing is removable inserts, or a single ply. The double layer/liner will snag and make putting on that glove next to impossible when they freeze and you've wet or sweaty hands.

The bane of winter clothing for me is when everything has a high neck, even when one layer fits over another, the necks are never able to all be zipped up at the same time. I prefer crew neck base layers and high neck outer, then I fill the space with a neck gaiter as I have ones in various thicknesses. I may wear two long sleeve mid-layers if it is cold enough, but a vest makes a good 2nd or 3rd mid-layer covering the chest wear needed leaving less bulk on the arms. Should the vest be under or over your LS mid-layers? That depends on which you tend to wear most. I tend to go long sleeve so I size the vest to fit over them. The lack of sleeves also makes the vest a lighter weight extra layer.

Be real careful about walking in any low spots. Because under cold, cold snow there can be mushy snow with intermixed water at about 32 degrees Farenheit. Maybe at your location a couple of weeks ago there was a sunny day and melting. So there might be several inches of slushy mush that then got snowed on at zero degrees or less. You can easily have a layer of snow multiple inches thick that is subzero snow, but it is insulating below it mushy snow that stays mushy. When you come by and crash through the overlay cold snow, you then step into warmer mushy snow. The free water finds every crack and pinhole in your boots, and then when you step up and over, up and over to trod along, at every lifting of every step your wet boots soaked to the skin are picking up the current outdoor temperature that might be subzero. You get bad frostbite real quick, so beware. Even if you have on 4 layers of pants, you might be walking into a stiff wind sometime. Especially if you are walking down a hill slope into the wind. The wind can mash down all your layers, squeezing out the air spaces, and push against the thigh bone. It can get really miserable frozen real fast, especially if it is 50 or 60 below with the wind chill. But if you have a layer of foam rubber or neoprene tied/sewn between pants thigh layers, you get valuable non-mashing insulation that can save you from tissue freezing conditions. The most important part to protect is the front of the thigh since that is where the warming blood flow is the least.

if you're going to be hiking or moving a lot you should be cold starting out and your generated body heat will warm you up. if you're sitting you need insulation in the form of air trapping lofted insulation or multi layers of fleece or wool that creates enough air space for your body to warm up and then a shell to retain that warmth by not allowing wind to chill you.
