What are the pockets and storage options on the jacket? Any useful interior pockets?How is the inside of the collar?I would use this as a shell for skinning and alpine skiing with a bunch of layers underneath.

In an effort to keep weight to a minimum as well as to increase maximum potential breathable area (more pockets = more fabric for moisture to travel through), the jacket has no interior pockets. The chest pocket and hand pockets have waterproof zippers and are non-lined. The chest pocket holds anything from Gu packets to a G1 iPod, and the hand pockets will fit enough granola bars, sunscreen, maps, duct tape on a pen, and walkies for your whole touring crew.The collar is lined with microfleece and the lining is minimal—just enough lining to protect your chin. The collar also has a zipper guard flap, which keeps scraggly beards and freshly shaved faces off of the zipper. The fit is definitely layer-friendly. I can wear a micropuff under mine without any loss in mobility.
