How do I dress for trip to Utah, Wyoming, S Dakota in Oct.
#1
Am vacationing in these states with my daughter and son-in-law in early October and I have absolutely no idea how to pack. Will Sweat shirts plus a jacket be enough or too much? Do we need heavy coats, etc.? I would really appreciate any input from people who live in the area. Thanks.

It's been known to snow in SD in October...but more toward the end! :D
I'd say sweater/sweatshirt for sure and bring a coat. You get warm-ish fall days, but as soon as the sun goes down it is brisk!
Do not bother with shorts or carpis...that time is over like, NOW. :D

Being a Utahan most of my life I can tell you that Oct can be warm or a blast of 2 ft of snow. It really requires layers. Generally the fist 2 weeks, you start out in the morning with a jacket, afternoon you go to short sleeves and then evening is jacket. The last 2 weeks, is light weight long sleeves to sweat shirts if it is snowing. Just watch the weather.
