Would these pants be good for mountainering as well as a rainy day hike back to my truck. Sounds like it's a one stop shop.

Yes, these will be a very good choice for mountaineering. They're enough of a shell that you can wallow around in the snow without getting wet, but breathable enough that (with some judicious zip-venting) you can work really hard and finish the day dry. I've used these for everything from mountain biking in the rain to backcountry skiing, some mountaineering, to hiking and riding the lifts. The only time I've found myself wanting something else was when I was riding lifts inbounds and got stuck on a chairlift in a high wind- these are great shells, but they're not a hard shell.
