BUT-- I made the mistake of buying a 3/4 length model to save a few grams of weight. Hence my feet, ankles, and calves hang of the edge and get cold. I know it's not supposed to get cold during the summer, but last year while camping in Michigan (I think it was June or July) the temperature plummeted to +34F at night. -Bob Matter ----------- "The real and lasting victories are those of peace, and not of war." --Ralph Waldo Emerson *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
