Layering for 35 - 45 degrees and raining

[samuela]

What's your ideal layering system for hunting in this weather?

Let's assume moderate rain and that you'll have to stop and go periodically (not just camp or stay home).

Synthetic Base Layer - Sitka Equinox Guard Hoody
Light Fleece - Kuiu Peleton 97 or 4 oz Polatrec Grid Fleece like Aspinwall.
Insulation if needed - Sitka Ambient or similar active synthetic

Rain jacket and pants - I like Kuiu Yukon or Pnuma 3L. Pnuma 3L is actually somewhat quiet to move in but not as durable.

For elk hunting:
Merino baselayers.
Rain shell pants and jacket.
Synthetic insulation layers depending on activity levels.

Merino base, lightweight soft shell pants and shirt and raingear and keep moving.
