So far I have:
Bottoms:
Mountain Hardware stretch base layer.
North Face Paramount Convertible Pants
Marmot rain pants

Top:
Capilene 1 T-shirt
Capilene 3 Zip neck long sleeve
Marmot Precip
Peak Performance light weight long sleeve top

Socks
(2) Smartwool med cushion

I will be starting Mid April from Georgia, and a few questions/debates I have been having with myself:
1) Am I missing anything from these sections (Another layer for cold weather? or would the combination of rain jacket for wind and capilene 3 + peak performance be fine?)
2) Should I get a set of fleece or so clothing for Camp clothes?

Thoughts/suggestions?

Yea I would bring a down vest or a fleece top. You always could mail it home.

I would add a light down sweater or fleece for cold insulation. I've never hiked the south at that time of the year but that's what I'm bringing for my upcoming thru (3-30).

I would say Drop the Peak Preformance top and pick up the light synthetic or down jacket to layer with the precip if it gets cold.

Dont forget a light hat(tobogan) and I would pick up some light fleece gloves for the early section.

Thanks for the feedback guys! I guess dropping the peak performance would be worthwhile as it serves the same function as the cap3. A down jacket or so seems to be the over all consensus :D!

Now what about part 2: Camp clothes, worth getting? If so a set of fleece clothes or what would be a good recommendation?

As for the camp clothes I use a Terramar silk bottoms. 3oz and 20 bucks keeps the funk off my sleeping bag and no sticking.
