    I don't wear socks 😂

    Try some different socks, fabric- before you go. Bare feet get sweaty and can create a problem- also make sure your hiking shoes Fit properly.

    Sleeping bag? Necessary? Type? Etc.

    You might want to get a bag that is good to 45 F and a silk liner for emergency’s. Don’t forget that you can always wear a sweater, socks etc. All of my hiking- Lausanne-Rome, had lodging of some sort- mostly monasteries . Make sure you have something for your head!!

    I have a “Marmot nanowave35” that is very light and warm to 35F. I also use a Thermarest” pad which reflects heat and it incredibly light(a couple of ounces. Make sure you have a pair of good socks And a warm hat. A lot of heat is lost from your head. Have fun🤗 gretelschuck@yahoo.com Vermont
