I am a poncho fan, but Rick is right.

For rain gear I would wear DriDucks with wind shirt and pants over the top of the DriDucks. About the same performance and weight as eVent at a fraction of the price. I think the best wind pants are Wal*Mart lined pants with the lining cut out.

For a pad I would use 3/8" Gossamer Gear ccf pad supplemented with a BackPackingLight TorsoLite pad.

For shelter I would use the DriDucks poncho in "turtle" mode. Stake down the four corners leaving a good bit of slack then guy the hood to an overhead branch. Leave enough slack that you can slide under the side.

The Jacks'R'Better Stealth would make an excellent quilt. and If you have any down time the Stealth worn with the DriDucks poncho will make you the envy of your peers.

I would carry it all in a zPacks Z1 with the ccf pad as virtual frame.

I would not go out without a stove. Maybe a FireLite Titanium Wings Stove inside a 850 ml pot.

Thank you for your service. thanks
