Personally, my layer system is a merino thermal, light fleece jumper, light fleece jacket, softshell, rain layer. Plus a couple of beanies for around camp at night: one for when it get chilly and another to go ontop when it gets f***ing cold! Daytime is usually only 2, maybe 3 layers but night time can be 4. If it gets to the point i need the 5th layer i climb in my sleeping bag and read intead of watching the stars.
No fires allowed where i go hiking...
I love merino wool, Ive often been ok using a merino midlayer as a base and whacking a camo shirt right on top - worked well enough last week up in the high country and it had snowed overnight.
I keep one of these in my pack incase the weather turns
