Just picked up the new Chugach to replace my older Kryptek Koldo set. Had a few showers and thunderstorms while up elk hunting yesterday. I was a few miles in, and a little hesitant to stop and put rain gear on as I was still hiking up to where I wanted to hunt that afternoon, however I thought I would give the new stuff a test.
Man, this stuff is awesome! It was pretty warm, but with the pit zips open a little, I never got that trapped heat feeling I always got with the Koldo, or any other rain gear for that matter. I was sweating as you would expect climbing straight up a mountain with a backpack, but it was nowhere near as uncomfortable as I have been in any of my previous rain gear. Really digging this stuff so far!
