Yes I will be coming from sea level to 10,000. I am not looking forward to acclimating frown

The person I am going with suggested a heavy fleece or down jacket, thermals, short sleeved shirt, long sleeve, and a wind shirt, and a rain shell.

I have a pair of Asolo boots that should do fine if I encounter a little bit of snow. I have a pair of smartwool socks and rei merinowool socks. For bedtime I have a thick pair of expedition wool socks smile One thing I have noticed while hiking with my smartwool and rei socks is that my feet seem more sweaty with them than regular cotton socks and my feet are very smelly when I am done and I normally don't have smelly feet. Is that typical of wool socks?

Thanks for all of the great suggestions and info! I always seem to overpack cuz Id like to be ready for whatever, but my lack of experience also makes it tough in determining what to bring

P.S. I am a pretty small guy 5'7 and 140 lbs.
