These are typical all-round cold weather softshells, I live in Northern Norway. Foul weather, whiteouts and zero visibility snowstorms is the most common weather desember through february. I would use these pants for anything, just keep in mind that they aren't bibs and they don't have internal gaiters, I use my patagonia super guides for big mountain and deep powder, the Makalus are more comfortable so I wear them whenever it's not deep powder or sleeting sideways. Paired with gaiters you'd have the full package tho.
