Sitka base layer lightweight merino or medium
« on: September 24, 2021, 09:02:52 AM »
I scored a 50 percent off..  I hunt primarily west side blacktail and have their timberland pants.  Anyone have suggestions or comparison of the difference between the lightweight and medium?

hard to say, dont know your layers over base, but i wear my lite layer up until the snow flies... you will want both to be able to shift..

I prefer lite unless its really cold or not moving much.  If the sun pops out even the the light is almost too much sep/oct.  Lite merino, fleece pullover, puffy, raincoat and you are set for any conditions.

Sorry guys, I didn't specify just doing bottoms.  Above is kind of what I was wondering..  are light weight good enough for typical west side day with the timberland style pants?  I have shells for when it's really wet
