I'll disagree slightly... While I think that's true forthe AT, the weather in California is extreme, and even if you only use it ten times; a couple of ounces of rain gear can be the difference between hypothermia and not. And the ability to wear down underneath almost makes up for the weight vs fleece.
Though I don't agree with rain Pants necessarily, something to keep yu dry is a must
