I'll be leaving Springer on April 25, relatively late for a NOBO thru.
Here are the clothes I was thinking of taking with me on the hike:
Two pair poly/spandex compression underwear (C9, Target-brand UnderArmor)
One pair long thermal EMS underwear
Two pair Lorpen mid-weight wool sock
One pair SmartWool PhD heavy wool sock
One Stoic merino wool t-shirt
One poly t-shirt (not sure if bringing two t-shirts would be beneficial, or if I could just use one?)
One poly long-sleeve shirt
Shorts? I haven't really decided on what specifically yet, though...
EMS softshell pants
Mid-weight fleece jacket
Outdoor Research Elusive (softshell jacket)
EMS rain/wind pants
Outdoor Research Mentor (rain jacket)
REI Thermo nylon/poly gloves
Wool hat
Bandana
I do believe that is it.
Would I be fine if I hit the trail carrying the short underwear, the mid-weight socks, the t-shirts, shorts, softshell jacket, rain pants, gloves, and bandana?
Since I live in CT, I was planning to meet up with friends as a day hike (or possibly multiple days, depending if they can keep up/me slowing down doesn't annoy me). I figured I could have them bring the "cold" gear at that point, or maybe bring up spares of something else (like the short underwear, or another t-shirt, etc).
