Work, yes, but be wary of the fabric rubbing on rocks or your rope. It's not as durable as your average puffy. Also, the anorak may interfere with your harness. Bill's suggestion to size up is spot on if you plan on putting it on over other layers. That said, for relatively mild conditions, the Hadron will disappear into your gear like no other. It's so light, you won't even notice it's there until you need it.

will work great, but you may want go up a size. the cuffs keep the arm openings where you need it, and easier to get on over other layers.
