Rainshield 02 Rainwear Multi-Use Suit (the yellow one)
http://www.rainshield.com/catalog_boating.html
jacket w/ hood =  6  oz
pants = 4.5 oz
Use them in the Sierras last summer....GREAT.
Cost about $50 for the 2 pieces and a stuff sack of the same material.

There is a heavier blue model for fishermen but it's overkill for backpacking.
Only downside - no visor on the hood so rain runs into your eyes - wear a brimmed hat under it.

Hi, Just curious has anyone found a really lightweight waterproof jacket?  I
see a lot of people have the Golite Reach.  I think it weighs like 12 oz.
Anything else out there?  OJOS
