By Ranked #1727 - Women's Down Jackets March 4, 2011

I live in Wyoming and there are many days where it is below zero. I'm also active in the mountains during the winter. The Bighorn Mountains may not get as cold as the Tetons but it still gets very cold up there. I'm loking for a jacket/coat that will work in these cold conditions but wont be bulky or heavy (I've got a Carhart for that!!)I don't want to have to layer a lot either. What coat would I look into? I'm willing to wear mens coats and sometimes (like the carhart) the men's fit better. Anyways just wondering. Thanks -Sarah

Sarah, this jacket should keep you warm if you are active down to 5 or 10 degrees F with a decent baselayer but it is not going to keep you warm below zero IMO. For temperatures that cold I would look into the down parkas but they are going to be more bulky.
