One more layering item thought for the day. Hiking through the eastern woods scouting yesterday, temp was 34deg and occasional light rain and mist. Had the Kelvin Active over the Peleton 200 and was comfortable and the KA shed the water just fine. What it does not shed, nor does an Arcteryx Atom or Kifaru LPP, is Briers. That is one thing a jacket like the Kuiu Guide handles much better. I don't think it will be an issue for out west, but certainly one more thing that makes layering out east vs. west different.
