Its going to be raining for who knows how long on the AT; and I'm going to put on my rain jacket. Is it the
Rab Atmos at 11 oz
Marmot Essence at 6 oz
Sierra Designs - Elite Cagoule at 6 oz
In the theory- all Breathable fabricate will soak through eventually -I choose the Sierra
But as a section hiker choosing my weeks to hike can I get by with the Marmot.
These are all in the same price range. Currently I use the 5 dollar poncho, if it rips i toss it out at home.
Those with more wet weather hiking experience..... begin.
