thinking. As you know I use WinterSilk's balaclava and long johns for the
trail. I know some people do not like silk, but it works great for
me. Super light and super comfortable. </FONT></FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Switchback rewrites: Having said that, I have just ordered from REI their
SmartWool longjohns bottoms and a new silk top. I am also using a
balaclava that is not silk but a little heavier. I got scared about the
upcoming Grand Canyon expedition and decided to get more robust, but still very
light gear.</DIV>
