Mt Whitney Zone Forums General Discussion Clothing recommendations for current conditions

Hi everyone,
Very excited to be only a week out from my first Whitney attempt. We've been training for 6 months so it's a little surreal that it's almost here! Sept 26 is our permit date (we are doing as a 1 day hike starting around midnight)

As the weather gets colder, I'm starting to debate my layers for the hike and would love some opinions. My go-to hiking clothes at this point has been:

- long pants (Patagonia Quandary, thin but tough hiking pants)
- long sleeve vented shirt
- insulated puff
- coat w hood (my ski jacket)
- ear warmers, gloves, neck warmer

I'm planning to carry some waterproof pants that can pull over in rain, but I'm wondering if I should be wearing more substantial bottom layers, or carry extra base layers with me.

Anything else you'd recommend given current weather?

Thanks!
