QUESTION: Have you found a practical and suitable way to attach blaze orange to your high-quality mountaineering headgear, especially a way that allows you to use more than one hat, a hood, rain gear, etc?
Why?
After hunting Alaska and Africa the last few years I've been spoiled not having to wear blaze orange. This year I'll be hunting mule deer and elk again in the mountain west, and have to comply with Colorado law for blaze orange which includes this regarding headgear:
"...Part of the fluorescent orange must be a hat or head covering visible from all
directions."
I used to use the typical blaze orange hats as you would find at Cabela's, but for hunting in cold climates, after hunting Alaska, I now mostly use hats made by mountaineering clothing companies like Mountain Hardware, or by companies like Sitka Gear, etc.
I want to stick with the mountaineering grade gear I have now.
I already have a wide array or headgear in blaze, and also some headband-type orange bands, like blaze fleece ear covers, I'm also aware that some people tie surveyors tape around their hats, but I'm looking for something better.
What works for you?
