1 t-shirt: summer (ODLO cooling and UPF 25 sun protection)
1 long sleeve layer
1 fleece jacket
1 puffy jacket: Women’s Ghost Whisperer Down Hooded Jacket – From my research you need to find something over 800-fill insulation to resists moisture and maintains warmth.
1 shell jacket: Marmot Starfire Jacket – Women’s – I’m really happy with it, won’t change it.

Backpack:
- Osprey Mutant 38L They don’t make it anymore, but it’s the lightest and well fitted one I could find. (The lightest one I could find is actually the Arc’teryx Alpha FL 45L Backpack. But it is too big for me and it comes in one size. I’m 5’4″.)
Poles: TRAIL TREKKING POLES – WOMEN’S. (I don’t recommend foldable poles as they are less resistant).
Water: Platypus Hoser 2.0L Reservoir I need to change with insulated one.
