[at-l] Smokies in May

That's why the second top layer is a Mountain Hardwear Super Stretch zip crew. Supposedly a heavy base layer, but really quite a bit more. Even at just 9 ounces.

Yeah, I'm with Ken. Even my little Campmor fleece vest would add a bunch under a wind stopper.

Given the variable weather this year, I'd check the forecast right before I left. Tonight it's going to be in the 50s up high, but a few days ago it was below freezing. I'd most likely take my light down vest as well as what you have listed.

30F bag, lightweight(#2) base layer top and bottom, heavy base(#4) top, Precip jacket and pants, wind and liner gloves. Good enough?
