Do you know where I can find a pair of
Cloudveil’s Prospector pants? No luck with a web search,seems to be discontinued. How about other suggestions of equal weight?
I understand the Peak is the replacement for the Prospector and Rodeo pants, with an improved fabric. There are a few comments elsewhere on these forums about them though not sure if anyone has posted a first-hand report yet.
I’ve got a pair of last year’s model of the MountainHardware Switchback Stretch pants. This year’s model weighs in at 11oz according to their website, but mine came in at 9.2 on my scale.
From what I have seen, the peak pants are pretty much the same as the prospector but without the drawcord and with some added pockets and features. Still pretty much the same idea.
