How does this jacket compare with the Patagonia Shelter Stone hard shell? I'm looking for a good hard shell to take up Rainier and Shasta.

both jackets would work great for the climbs up Rainier and Shasta. The Shelter Stone is a little burlier shell and would provide a little more protection when it's super wet and nasty out, and the Stretch Ascent is lighter weight, more packable, and has a little more stretch to accomodate movement. Both are completely waterproof and breathable.
