Every person is different so there is no one right answer.
For me, the LPP over the Atom is very warm. It was too warm for hiking in single digit temps at 12k. Then I had a Patagonia silk weight base, 240 and Atom. The Atom is a surprisingly warm jacket. This morning it was in the 20s but very windy and my body was completely comfortable as well. I was still, just leaning against a tree glassing a mountain. I’m never moving to get warm while glassing. If I get that cold it’s time to start hiking somewhere. It’s just hunting, I’m. It that motivated! Hands and feet are typically another story when temps get into the teens. Legs have been ok with FL Merino, Prana Zion with the puffy kuiu insulation over the top while glassing. I did pick up some big Cabelas gloves for glassing and they are awesome. kind of bulky, but warm!!
My feet are always the first to get me moving. Trying some Superfeet in insulated Crispis. It’s a little better.
