If NOBO starting in March, how long did you keep it before mailing it home?
Thanks

Montbell EX Light jacket. One of my favorite pieces of gear. Ways little enough that I carry it year round.

When its cold out I wear a rain jacket with a fleese jacket underneath. Find it very warn and I can vent as needed

Synthetic. Montbell Thermawrap. I've had it since 2005 and it's been on every trip with me. It's also my pillow. Definitely one of my most favorite pieces of gear.
