I love finding new things to "bash." Burton bashing getting old. I think cotton is my new target, or maybe Jesus (I heard that bitch can tap dance pretty good).

A few things to add on top of what everyone else has suggested. My jacket is insulated and 10k waterproof, so all I wear underneith is UA CG mock Turtle. For my legs, I have a non-insulated waterproof shell. Underneith that I wear a polyester pant (much like UA CG) on 20-30 degree days. If it gets warmer I just open up the vents on the pants and jacket. If the temp drops down to the single digits I would probably need another layer for my legs.

I tend to not get cold easily so i dont usually layer to much. My pants have a fleece lining so i dont layer under them. Usually wear a long sleeve t shirt and then just my jacket.
And i dont know anyone else who wears a single pair of ankle socks lol every year i say im going to get a decent pair of socks and just never do.

am i the only one who ROASTS in UA cold gear if it isnt less than 15 degrees out? i hear of everyone wearing a million layers and such, but i get super overheated in anything but a plain old tshirt under my jacket (unless its one of those real cold days). even on the cold days, i still wear just shorts under my non-fleecelined pants and just a UA coldgear and tshirt under my jacket. is something wrong with me?? haha...

UA cold gear almost works too good. I've only used it recently in the spring, and it becomes unbearably hot. Can't vouch for it during really cold weather though.

Well, some people just react different to tempature. I get really cold, really easy. My feet get cold when it hits like 40. They get CRAZY cold when it's like 20. My hands get cold in almost every pair of gloves I've worn. I rock mittens. My nose and face get cold when I go fast, even when it's quasi-warm out. I wear a full face mask 98% of the season. I am often the only person on the mountain wearing one in the late fall / early spring. My housemate, pardon the pun, is the polar opposite. He can almost ride nekkid when the windchill is below zero. That said, I do get plenty warm with UA cold gear. But, I'd rather be plenty warm, than plenty cold.

Regardless of what you wear, change immediately after you're done boarding if you are going to be exposed to the cold air. Your clothes will be wet, especially socks, underwear, and your base shirt (yes even moisture wicking shirts) and you will lose a ton of heat when you stop moving. Even knowing this I thought I'd still be good all bundled up when I went to CO. In combination with dehydration, I got the chills, vomited, and suffered a monster headache until I fell asleep that night.
If you're going straight to a heated lodge, you can stay in the same wet nasties and not worry about core temp, you'll just stink.
