I agree with the idea that in the summer here it's too damn hot for rain gear, and it takes forever to get it put on along the side of the road. If it's a rainy day, I'll catch a ride or just take the car, but I do carry some packable rain gear in on my LHT, but have only used it about twice is 1.5 years.

I purchased Amazon.com: Sierra Designs Men's Hurricane Jacket, XX-Large, Red: Sports & Outdoors, and these https://www.amazon.com/gp/css/order-...30-2677055&sr=. Be forewarned to get a size larger than necessary in the pants.
