As for rain gear, my militay connections hooked me up, I ay look ridiculous, but I wont be wet. Tried and true...for feet, if you dont have other means, wrap your socks (on your feet) with plastic bags and then put your boots on, they may be warm, but they'll be dry!

Walmart rain gear is good for about 1 trip, it tears at the seams and starts leaking after a couple hundred miles...

Yes Mother, I'm working on buying a tail bag right now!
