RE: Lightweight Raingear
Hi Troy,
No I was wearing fleece I believe.It is actually the moisture out there that has had me be on this search for the "perfect" clothing or combination of clothing for the Idaho climate and vegetation.I like the wolfskin a lot,I have one Grey Wolf Woolens set (jacket and pants) and they are lined.They are in the middle of the range from unlined to comformax lined to lite loft lined.They are the comformax lined.In hind sight I would have bought the unlined and layered under them for a bit more versatility.I have a set of unlined wolfskin (Enigma)on the way.I nevered wanted to pack clothing on my back but I think it is unavoidable.Walk in light and carry additional layers as needed.Some peoples thing is bows or rifles mine is clothing.I am always looking for the right combination for whatever elements i am in.I have bought quite a bit of mountaineering type clothing over the last couple of years,light but with high warmth to weight ratio's.If it is going on my back I want to minimize the weight.
You have always been pleased with your Cabela's fleece,with goretex or dryplus right? You do plenty of walking,if that stuff wicks to keep you dry and is warm when you need it to be,you have got it licked.
