Raingear

Check this out too
All I'd say is that Elemental Designs and Chris Zimmer both have panel loader options if you want to check them out too. Edit - Sorry Chris I probably just made your life more complicated. ...

Fleece in Rain
Andrew Skurka said he has gone back to fleece for hiking in cold wet conditions. I believe he said he would take one if he went back to Alaska for example. The idea is that if you are out in cold...

Re Size
I'd say what you have is the original Jam. This was updated to the Jam2, which then became the Jam 50. If I understand correctly the original Jam had 2750 cubic inches of space which is a ...
