Then an UA hoodie, a light breathable jacket over top. Windbreaker over that when we stopped to glass.

If your baselayer is snug, it will wick better. Your second layer allows heat to dissipate. Your third layer is either the same material as your second, or its a windstopper. Dont walk far in a windstopper. You will perspire too much.

Or you can wear a huge parka and just sit all day.

Camo? Meh. I can live and hunt very well without it

Merino wool is my favourite baselayer. Our cameraman liked UA as a base layer. At the end of the day, i didnt smell and he smelled like a hockey bag
That's awesome! a hockey bag! I do have some merino wool stuff from costco. I have used it in the past and it's been great! I like your explanation though,

Is that the kind of stuff you would wear in cold weather or mild?
