The weather can vary, from very hot to cold and wet, and everything in between!
The temperature and conditions can change from the bottom of the mountain to the TOP. And always from midday to midnight!
We recommend the layered look so you can add or subtract as the weather dictates. The mountain tops are generally a lot cooler than in the valleys so we tie our extra jacket or sweat shirt on the back of our saddle.
BE PREPARED!
