I go with a base layer of thin Under Armor, then some Cabela's Polar Fleece, then a wool sweater. I wear insulated bibs and a heavy jacket over that. I wear 2000 gram thinsulate boots and a warm hat or ski mask. I always bring a muff and stuff it with 4 hand-warmers.
Damn that would be nice to have highs in the teens. Il trade ya anyday. Instead of 2000 gram thinsulate id try 4000 gram insulate and wear heavy under armour cold gear, not the thin stuff. just sayin...minnesota is a different animal, I live 5 miles from the canadian border and your lucky if you can feel your fingers period. warm years hear your lucky if its 20degrees out.
