[pct-l] Trail Clothing.

[Jason Waicunas]

I agree that Sun Precautions makes a great hat, but I think RailRiders makes 
the best shirt / pant combo.  I used Sun Precautions clothing for about 500 
miles and it was good, but slower to dry and heavier than the Railriders 
Ecomesh shirt and Weatherpants that I used.  Also, the Sun P. gear made me 
look like Richard Simmons....a trail name that didn't stick thankfully!  Go 
to: www.railriders.com to check out their clothing.

Good luck,
Nabor J
