regina, thanks for the list–and the umbrella endorsement! what’s the weight total of your summer pack?
thanks,angie
Hello Regina,
Where did you buy the power shield fabric used for making your overpants?? Did you use a backpack attachment for the umbrella or did you just carry it with our hand??
I bought my Powershield fabric at Seattle Fabrics. http://www.seattlefabrics.com
Let me know if you want help crafting your pants!
I just carry my umbrella in one hand while using a single trekking pole in the other.
Thanks for your questions!
