Bumped this thread up because it's now winter again and I'm often walking instead of biking due to sleety weather and bad roads.

I walked a brisk 5 miles this morning, about 40 degrees F and kind of nice out. But the roads too nasty for biking today.
I really enjoyed my walk and had no trouble at all keeping warm. I wear several layers of thin merino wool, plus a heavy wool vest and good wool socks and gloves. I'm a wool nut. The wool keeps me warm but breathes well. Here's pretty much my typical gear for winter walking:

We are supposed to get 3-5" of snow tomorrow. Still not enough to snowshoe ...but fun to walk in! Maybe I'll go on the 2 mile nature conservancy trail through the woods near my house if the snow is pretty tomorrow.
