So for a typical day late spring bear hunt what would be your layering system? I have never hunted at that time or in Kodiak/Afognak so I would really appreciate the advice of someone that has.

It depends on how you will be hunting and the forecast. On the best days you will likely be in the sun glassing. On Mothers` Day 2015 we woke up to 6" of snow on the boat and fog on the deck...
