Just to be clear: shitty creek refers to Stoney Creek, some of the shittiest and misrepresented gear. Don't ever go there. Repeat: DON'T BUY STONEY CREEK.
My raincoat is a battered old Brit issue, keeps out the wind and rain and lots of useful pockets, not light but when the weather is crap, I love the old thing! With my down jacket underneath am good as gold curled up in the tussock with the hood pulled over while the rain and wind bash away :2 z Z:
