I'm planning an elk hunt for this fall and need to start gearing up for it. I'm trying to put together a list to distribute to my family for birthday/father's day/etc gifts. I currently own zero clothing suitable for a mountain hunt. I'm applying for tags in 5 states, but don't expect to draw on any of those this year. So my elk hunt will most likely be a late season Colorado OTC hunt. The only tag I may have a chance at drawing would be a late season rifle hunt in Wyoming(October 15-November 5).
I got on the Kuiu site just to see what's available and put together this layering plan for a late season hunt:
Peloton 97 zip t hoodie next to skin
Ultra merino 200 zip t
Peloton 240 full zip hoodie
Super down pro hooded jacket
Peloton 97 zip off bottom next to skin
Super down ultra pant
Talus hybrid pant
Chugach NX rain gear
I think I like the vias Camo pattern better than the verde. Obviously, I'll need a good pair of boots. I have a pair of waterproof, uninsated ll bean hunting boots that I love. Can I put enough wool socks on to keep my feet warm in those?
Overall, what do y'all think of those layers? I'm not locked in to kuiu, it's just the first website I landed on. I know its pricey and there are cheaper options. Which layers would you look at cheaper options and which layers are worth it to spend the money on kuiu? Anything you'd add or take away?
