So here it is! I am leaving February 20th from Springer. I know alot of people may frown at the idea of a 1 pound rain jacket and 10 oz. rain pants, but I'm going to do my best to stay dry when its freezing cold! The Foray rain jacket will be swapped out for a Helium II when the weather is appropriate. The wool base layers will be swapped out for lightweight capilene once it warms up. I will also swap out my sleeping bag for a 32 degree bag and lose the Denali gloves when it warms up.Those are my plans and I would appreciate ANY input/advice. I did a 'shakedown' over the past few days in NC and was very pleased with my sleeping situation and the weight on my back.
