Hi. I'm torn between the backcountry guide and the alpine guide. I need them for lots of bushwacking/hiking in the Appalachians in the spring (read wet and cool but rarely snowy). I'm a field biologist looking for a durable pair of warm and water hating pants. Good cargo pockets a plus as I'm usually carrying lots of stuff. Opinions?

Alpine Guide sounds like it will be the best pant for you. The Backcountry Guide Pant is more of a winter ski touring pant. Alpine guide is tough, sheds water, and should be great for the Appalachians.
