[pct-l] Umbrella question

[Trekker4 at aol.com]

LuxuryLite has a 7 oz umbrella; it has no handle,  and fits in the top of the 
frame post of the LuxuryLite pack on either side; I'm  sure some of you could 
adapt it to other packs, but that raises the  weight. The height is 
adjustable, and it will not break if the wind turns  it inside out; just pop it back. I 
got lucky last summer, only needing it three  times between Bouquet Cyn Rd 
and Donner Pass: once for the sun at the end of the  Mojave crossing, and twice 
for brief rains.

I recently bought two chrome domes off the golite site.  The chrome  dome is 
listed at 10 ounces on the web site but the ones I received weighed  7.85 and 
7.90 ounces.  I am not familiar with the other  brand.
