As Kris, our Assistant Manager at PAST Outdoors recounts of a recent trip:
“Waking up to the light filtering through eucalypts in the heart of the Australian wilderness, I felt nothing but gratitude—for the silence, the solitude, and my Mont Moondance 2.
Hiking through the Blue Mountains with my partner, we needed a tent that was light, tough and easy to pitch after long days on the trail.
The Moondance 2FN delivered.
Rain rolled off the fly without a hitch, and the spacious interior meant we never felt cramped. It’s become our favourite piece of gear, our home in the bush.”

Great jacket. Super light, fits well, well made. Wish it could fold into itself like many other jackets of this style and price point but I can live without this feature.
