What to Wear Hiking in Australia | Outdoor Layering System

Описание: An effective layering system is crucial when exploring the outdoors. The idea of layers is that you slip them on and off, allowing you to adapt to changes in the weather and terrain. A decent layering system that works for your personal needs can be the difference between being comfortable and something more serious like hypothermia or heat stroke.

To put it simply, your layering system should have 4 parts:

1. Base layer: wicks away moisture.

2. Active mid layer: breathable while retaining temperature.

3. Static mid layer: a warmer, insulating layer to trap in body heat.
