Well I did it. I picked up new rain gear. My old jacket is so warn that the hood laminate has cracks in it and the back lets the wind right through. Protection from the wet forget about it. Ok, only if I treat it after every outing. Pants are going good, but they don't protect from the rain anymore and the right leg zip is starting to have a nasty habit of unzipping its self in the middle of the zipped portion. A local mountain shop had a sale on Arcteryx gear. After some long thinking I did it. I picked up full bibs and a new jacket. This stuff is hand made out of Vancouver Canada. Not cheep but this stuff should last longer than the 3 years of my old gear. Oh and the best part, they FIT!!!! I needed gaiters to keep the snow out of my flood ready pants and the arms were slightly too short on my old jacket. Can't wait to try this stuff out. MMMM, better check the weather for this weekend. Time to climb :) I don't want to forget the very nice new Mammut rope next in the pic. Thanks a ton Josh. Used once and man it has a nice feel to it!!!
