Which poncho?

That would actually be redundant. The Altus is not what we think of as a poncho. It is a long raincoat with sleeves, a zipper and a hump to accommodate a backpack. It would be used instead of raincoat, pants and pack over. It weighs about 12 oz (depending on size) which is way less than all the other items. I know they have them at the small sports store in Leon and probably is Sarria.
Do u know what sports store in Leon that has the Altus?
