Yesterday I went out on the AT to Leroy Smith shelter for AMC shelter watch. It was foggy and wet but no forecast of rain. I’ve been digging into my basement gear boxes and found some old gear I haven’t used in a long long time. I took Molly Mac Gear Insultex underquilts and Jacks R Better FrogTogs type of under & over protection. I forgot what it’s called. No forecast of rain but sure enough I got caught in a deluge. I had just enough time to set up my hammock and the other gear. I forgot a tarp but the JRB gear kept me dry in the hammock. The MMG gear is fairly waterproof too so I wrapped myself in it while settling up my hammock. I stayed warm and dry.

These pieces of gear aren’t made any more. I’m glad I didn’t throw them away. Thanx Molly Mac and Jacks!
