I just purchased these pants but am begining to wonder if they will be warm enough for a trip to Yellostone in late January. I have made several trips there in January and at times it may be 25 below. Hope with good baselayer I will be ok.

I have the last version (Scary Crow - GoreTex) and I have been wearing them on a morning hike almost every day for about 5 years in the cooler months. They are great for walking from about 40 degrees down to the low 20's. At that point, I add some light long johns and I have used that down to 10 degrees F (wind chill below 0). Something else becomes a problem first!

Yes...but only if you use a thermal base layer underneath. I skied these today with a thin wool ski sock, and patagonia cap 1 on the bottom with the pat cap 2 men's brief underneath...the mid-mountain temp was 7 degrees F with windchill at -12 degrees F and I was toasty. Obviously, a thicker underlayer's going to add even more warmth, but I find the thin baselayer is great with these when my legs are active (i.e. skiing). I often wear these with only briefs underneath for moderate temps > 30 deg F for exercise like resort skiing.
