[philmont] Frogg Toggs?

I don't know from Frogg Toggs, except that our Scoutmaster likes his.

Both of my sons now have Marmot Precip jackets I found at off-season sales at REI's outlet store online (www.reioutlet.com), for, IIRC, $60 each. We added the lightweight, waterproof nylon pants from Campmor for a full set. The Precips are great jackets -- and the pants didn't get worn too much at Philmont , even though we were there last year during the monsoon season. The boys said the rain usually came in after they finished hiking for the day, and if they did get wet on the legs it didn't take long to dry. I think they only wore the rain pants one day -- but the jackets frequently.

YMMV.
