RE: Lightweight Gear
be careful of that red head "waterproof" suit, not sure which you have, but I bought a redhead waterproof suit....caught in a downpoor out west, and became wet!
I'd test that baby in the shower.....came to learn that alot of waterproof gear really isnt waterproof just highly resistant, how they get away with saying its proof, I do not know, but others told me stories of the same thing.
My browning gore tex was waterproof.
