Maja (.cz) spent six months on trail, covering more than 3,500 km through deserts, canyons, mountains, snowfields and the Pacific coast. 🏔️
In conditions like these, a rain jacket is not just a “just in case” layer. It becomes one of the most important pieces of protection, something that needs to work day after day, with a backpack on, in rain, wind, snow and constant moisture.
During her journey, Maja tested the Cumulus® Moonrain jacket in real long-distance hiking conditions. Alongside it, she also carried the Cumulus® Inverse down jacket and the X-Lite 300 sleeping bag, building a lightweight system for long days, cold nights and changing weather on trail.
