Hello, this is my first post here. I've been lurking about for a while and finally came up with a question I need some help with. I used to hike alot when I was a kid, and I've recently jumped back into it.
I'm trying to figure out a way to keep pack weight and space down, and I'm trying to find the best solution for my extra layers. Ideally, I'm trying to find a jacket that can take care of wind and rain, and I was also looking for an extra warming layer for when things start to cool down.
Do you think I should get some kind of jacket with a removable shell? Or should I go with separate layers, like maybe some kind of fleece and a wind/rain jacket? Are there any types of fabrics or materials that I should look into? Any brand or models you would recommend?
Sorry for all the questions that have probably been asked before. There seems to be a lot of options out there and I'm just trying to find the best one before I start spending money on the wrongs things.
Thanks for any help you can give.
