So, I have been backpacking for the last few years and have just recently worked on lightening my load. I am not trying to be ultralight but like to shoot for about ten pounds and wont sweat if I am a little over.
In the past I have pretty much stuck to backpacking when the weather is warmer and nicer but this year I wanna extend my trips all the way through November and into early December. I am located in West Virginia and this time of year snow becomes quite possible.
Here is my whole gear list and any advice will be appreciated and taken into consideration. What I am mainly worried about is my clothing and footwear. Will my feet freeze if I am hiking through a little snow with trail runners and one pair of wool socks on?
I know my sleeping bag is heavy and not good down to the 15 degree rating but I have an Enlightened Equipment Rev X 10 degree with over stuff on the way that will be here at the beginning of November, which I think will work with my combination of sleeping pads.
Thanks guys and gals
