If you dont like cold weather it's because you dont have the right gear.

Mountain Hardwear Sub Zero SL Hooded Down Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 December 31, 2010

Pros
- Very warm
- Lightweight
- Wind and water resistant
- Packs down very small in it's stuff sac
- Better price than similarly preforming down jackets

Cons
- Too short for some uses (perfect for climbing and most outdoor use)
- Zipper hard to start if the lower drawstrings are pulled at all

I've had this Jacket for a few years and it's a must have for core gear. It's held up well and keeps you toasty when you need it to. Using it to climb Rainier or just watching a meteor shower on a cold night this will make the cold feel comfy!

It's warmer than some may realize. I think people make the mistaking of layering up too much to combat the cold. With the use of this jacket you can have a thin base layer for normal outdoor exertion and then put on the Sub Zero when you rest, snack or stop to camp. Out of all of my outdoor gear this jacket is in my top 3 items for the cold days outdoors.

Nice Pants

Arc'teryx Beta AR Pant - Men's

Arc'teryx Beta AR Pant - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 December 30, 2010

Used these for a week in the Utah powder this season. Med/Tall fit me perfectly. I wore light silk long underwear with em and they were nice/dry and comfy. Temps were from 33 to 15 degrees and the wet snow came down all day one day and not a drop of moisture inside. I plan on using these for mountain and ice climbing as well as hiking if rain is in the forecast. A buddy of mine had the Outdoor Research brand pants like these and although they were very similar the Arc'teryx were better quality. (as you would expect for the price)

Pros:
Very Waterproof
Nice full side zippers
Built in Gators
Lightweight
Breathable

Cons:
Only one pocket :(
No Recco avalanche reflector
Price
