[quote=Mike]silk weight warmies to sleep in/wear under hiking pants if need bee. Light light weight rain shells act as wind breakers or rain breakers.
Hi Bee....I guess this answers the question "Hey Bee, what are ya wearing"
My tent....a nice cheap Hi-Tech V-LITE 2 I got from Big 5 for around $35. It's easy and light. NO POLES. You use your trekking pole to hold it up, so that helps keep the weight down. It says it weighs 3.5 pounds, but I've weighed mine without the trekking pole and mine weighed in the 2's, probably because of the T pole.I've used it several times when I camp, fish, etc in the Sierras, and even though it was cheap, Has a nice zippered vestibule in front to knock the dirt off your boots. I love it.
