[pct-l] GoLite vs Montbell

[dude at fastmail.ca (dude)]

John - I have not seen either jacket, but I own a Patagonia Drangonfly, 
which is the same concept.  The Dragonfly is really great for its 
weight and material.  I was really surprised at how warm it was.  it is 
also very water-resistant.  I have tried it in the rain and it kept me 
prtty dry, but it doesn't really breathe all that great.  A buddy of 
miner tested his with a full power water hose and found that it kept 
him *almost* completely dry even with the full deluge of a wide open 
hose.  I would suspect that these two garments would work similarly, 
but I have not seen them

good luck,
dude
