Seriously some of the best advice I've seen, down to understanding that merino holds on to too much moisture leading to conductive heat loss (despite the warmth when wet claims), the superiority of soft shells, and the use of a vest for light weight warmth when leading.

I have been looking all over youtube for videos that demonstrate layering with actual examples of products from a single manufacturer. Showing them all on with harness and helmet was awesome. Clear, concise descriptions, it doesn't get any better than this, nice job!

Hey, thanks for the feedback. Here's some updated info. The current Patagonia R1 Techface hoody doesn't have a helmet-compatible hood BUT, they will redesign the same jacket and it will go back to having a helmet hood in Spring 2024.
