Advice on my Clothing List.

Hats off to the Bora Bora Boonie Bomber Hat Man. What material did you make those homemade pants out of and did you add pockets? Did you find a pattern or just go by your own seat-of-the-pants design?

Gang.

I bought some MontBell Stuff. Oh Boy! The insulation factor is great. MI is chilly and damp. I’m in the transition phase between Ultra Heavy, UL & SUL. I replaced my REI hoody with a MB Parka. Love it.

Hey Scott, after tons of options…I did buy the Drop Stoppers suit amd I bought the MontBell Thermawrap Parka. I was checking the new system out in 28 degree F. weather, wind chill down to 11 degree that day. Winds off of Lake Huron get chilly. I was snug as a bug in a rug. Excellent. However, the parka has a hood and the Drop Stopper has a hood. The Precip jacket would have worked great but it weighs more and costs a ton more. Oh well. However, the Montbell fit under the Drop Stopper perfectly. I thought that I would just drop you a qick line.
