Good morning, Sam,
For my comments on ponchos, etc. see:

We train for distance, for heat, for mountains, on snow, with packs, and
with all conceivable types of gear. Why would a serious PCT thru-hike
aspirant not train in the rain? It won’t go away just because we ignore it.

Hiking the Pct since before it was the PCT – 1965
