jonah. 775 Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 Montaine, Lowe alpine and rab all do decent headgear. The Lowe alpine mountain hat takes some beating. Not sure about sizes on them all but the Lowe alpine comes up snug 3 Quote Link to post

jiggy 3,209 Posted November 2, 2018 Report Share Posted November 2, 2018 I tend to skin the native wildlife and stick it in on my head. Their skins are usually a pretty close comparison to to the local climate . Although it gets messy in skunk territory. 1 Quote Link to post
