    X2 impertech.
    unless you need it to breathe.. But if you can walk slow enough to not sweat, impertech is light and 100% waterproof.

    Impertech jacket. Poineer bibs. Lightweight and packable.

    Ruined a pair of imperteck pants so now I'm using Poineer bibs that look & feel just like imperteck (cheaper too).

    For ATV/Skidoo/Boating I run the Cabelas Guidewear Jacket and Pants and they are awsome. Bulky to pack away if not in use though, so no good for a pack trip.

    With this Neverwet you can spray youself and it doesn't matter what you're wearing.
