What do you suggest for Good Packable Raingear?

I use a poncho.

I agree, the only con i have with them is that they can be a bit noisy.

I got some Red Head stuff from Bass Pro a few years back which is quiet, light and waterproof. Has been rugged so far, and didn't cost a mint.

I got a wool cape that is listed on Ron La Clair's site----covers the head and shoulders takes up minimal space and protects the essential areas.

I have a great combo and a pretty good comparison.  I have Cabela's packable rain suede bibs with a space rain pullover top- matching camo.

The suedes are a little heavier/ more durable/ more pricey and don't pack as small but I would recommend them.  The space rain suit is lighter and more compact.

Either of these are fine but I think I have a great combination.

Is this a backpack hunt where light weight is needed?

Do you believe in breathable waterproof fabrics, the tooth fairy and the Easter bunny?

If you are hiking up a mountain at 10,000' NO material is going to "breathe" that sweat away. Pit zips help.

If you want to stay dry while you wait out a mountain storm, my vote is the Golite Poncho or Helly Hansen Impertech
