New Gear - Poncho

Finally Bought a New Poncho

Well I finally bought a new poncho. Although this doesn't seem like a big purchase the time it took me to find what I was looking for was crazy. For years I have had a "Kelty Pack - backpacking poncho with pack extension". Since it had seen better days I wanted to replace it with another poncho that had a backpack extension that could fold up when it was not being used. Evidently that was the problem. I could find lots of cheap ponchos. I could even find lots of good quality normal ponchos. But finding a good quality poncho with an extension turned out to be a real pain. I finally bought an "Equinox Terrapin Nylon Poncho with Pack Extension" and it looks like it will do the job.
