If there might be a problem drying them overnight then more are better.
Hands and feet get wet from snow as well as sweat and having a spare pair of boot liners and gloves might save you some frostbite.
You will want a dry pair of felts each day for sure,
You can dry the spares overnight, same with the mitts and mitt liners.
Having 2 sets of spares cover you in case you get a soaker.


I wear Baffin snowmobiling boots and have a custom molded insole to my foot with hotronic m4 heaters. The m4's can give well over twelve hours of continuous operation but I only use them on an as needed basis. I've found that wearing liners insulate my feet from the heaters and am more comfortable without liners. I do bring plenty of warm socks though - one fresh pair per day plus one.
