[QUOTE="dougduey, post: 1621372, member: 33159"] I was in your shoes over 10 years ago when I relocated to CO from MI. I had thick, heavy clothing for stand hunting. You need a great pair of boots, like others have stated. Second, spend the money and get some high quality hunting clothing. I bought a bunch of Sitka gear and it became worth every penny when I had to hike up and out of a deep canyon in the Vail area (we looked down upon the ski resort) when I was elk hunting. Not only was the clothing non restrictive, it wicked away all the sweat and kept me very warm. I was soaked by the time I made it back to camp. I stripped all the clothes off and hung it up inside our outfitter tent and fired up the tent stove. Within a couple of hours, everything was dry. Look at Kuiu clothing, too. I have a bunch of it, and it’s fantastic . It’s cheaper than Sitka and, in my opinion, a little better. Kuiu didn’t exist when I bought all my Sitka, otherwise I would have purchased everything from them. My boots and Camo clothing are honestly the most important hunting items I own. Get some good 10x binos, too. You’ll use them a lot. [/QUOTE]
