[QUOTE="scn, post: 4236195, member: 1859"] x2 If you are walking any distance into your stand, a big backpack can be the most essential thing in keeping you warm on stand. If you sweat, once you get on stand your body will be expending a bunch of btu's in evaporating that moisture in your clothing. The evaporation process cools in the winter just like it does for you in the summer. So, as Randy posted, the key is to not break a heavy sweat walking in. You can do it by allowing some extra time for your walk in and going slow enough that you don't sweat. But, the easiest method for me is to carry in the majority of my clothes and dress at the bottom of the stand. Even in extreme cold, on most of my walks in I'll have one thin layer of merino on top during the walk. You start off cold, but it doesn't take very long for that one layer to be more than enough as you are walking. [/QUOTE]
