Almost regardless of the weather, I always have a otte gear eVent jacket (or similar hard/soft shell) on me as well as a good hooded sweater and a base layer. I also, have a pair of insulated gortex pants and extra socks.

I'm in the PNW where weather changes almost instantly at times. I've been in sunny 70+ degree weather, then when the sun went down, it started to snow.

What is your philosophy on proper clothing?
