How adept are these pants for alpine climbing/mountaineering? I'm looking for something that's waterproof and a little beefier than a winter backpacking shell.

You could alpine climb or mountaineer in these pants just fine. Consider them an all purpose waterproof/breathable shell pant. The shell fabric is a nylon dobby weave that is pretty tough (3 seasons of skiing for me) and would do just fine as a climbing pant. They are a little more generously cut than other shell pants in the Mountain Hardwear line... so, if you are looking for a more climbing specific pant check out the Argon Ice Pants. They are a Proshell Gore pant and area bit more pricey. Hope this helps.
