My advice to the new guys that come with us. #1. Make sure you have a warm, dry place to sleep at night. #2 Make sure you have clothes, boots, whatever that will keep you dry and warm during the day in all weather. Layers are paramount. Carhartt is not the answer. If you get wet and cold, life will suck. The more money you spend, the lighter the weight the clothes, tent, sleeping bag etc. Prioritize sexy gear like guns, backpacks, binos, after the clothes, boots, tents, sleeping gear.
