Another great raingear set is from Columbia Sportswear. It's a pants/jacket combination and is also heavy duty rubber-coated nylon. It doesn't breath, but it actually stuff down pretty small and is completely waterproof. It packs smaller than my goretex stuff and I don't worry about getting in muddy. I got the set for something like $25 US at Galyn's(sp?), so they qualify as a great buy. -Patrick At Monday, 04 March 2002, Rob MacDonald <robm_at_udl.com> wrote: >I picked up some great raingear at Slickers, the raingear emporium in >Prince Rupert on Saturday.
