[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 1407775, member: 68875"] I always hunt in cotton in AZ for year round. Usually either jeans as a base layer, or a canvas type pant, like Carhartts. Cover this up with Kuiu Guide pants or even the Yukon Rain pant during late season cold weather hunts. Or both when it get sub-zero (yes, it gets sub-zero on occasion in AZ). Top is usually good Poly or Poly/wool blend base, cotton SS tee, maybe cotton LS tee, then some combo of the following: Kuiu Guide vest, Kuiu Guide jacket, Kuiu Chinook jacket, Kuiu Yukon Rain jacket, Kuiu Down jacket. Add wool or Poly neck gaiter,G beanies, gloves, etc. as meeded. Late elk here can range from sub-zero or single digits up to 60s as it warms up. Not uncommon to have a 60-70° temp shift throughout the day. A good pack to carry all your layers midday on an all day excursion is a lifesaver. Mine and my 13 year old daughter's layers as the day wears on...almost all of it went back on as sunset approached. I think temps that day were 4° to 65° and back down to 20° when we got back to the truck.
