[pct-l] trail clothing

My down sweater didn't weigh even 1 lb. I wore it every night in my  
sleeping bag through late June and often in early July, too. I also  
wore it constantly during town visits. It's not always as warm in So  
Cal as you think. I thought it was weight well spent. But I am female  
and might get colder than young men do.
