I am 6' 175 lbs with an athletic build. 32" waist and 33-34" inseam in pants. I have several pieces of Arcteryx( all jackets and vests- which i love). Want to buy a 3 or 4 season pants for hiking , snowshoeing, climbing. Torn between Gamma MX and Gamma LT. significant price difference . I know LT with layering is an option. Any suggestions based on use? Would I be a medium or medium /long in pants? Thanks

I'd suggest going for the Gamma LT for a four season pant. The Gamma MX is great for cold weather but it's got a fleece backed fabric and would overheat you when temps are above freezing. I'm basically your same size and the medium-regular is what I'd suggest.
