By Ranked #1125 - Men's Ski Pants January 5, 2010

Are these pants good for mountaineering/ice climbing? I'm seeing reviews about skiing, but I'm wondering about the fit and material for other winter mountain activities.

Thanks much...

It really is designed more as a ski fit. Here are some alternatives that would be better for mountaineering/climbing: -North Face Mountain Pant -North Face Mammatus Bib (personal favorite) -North Face Litespeed Pant Any of these should serve you well and have a better cut/design for climbing. Hope this helps-
