Is this jacket a good shell for winter activities like snowshoeing?

It will work best as a mid layer in the heart of winter. I wore mine under an Arcteryx Pro-shell and it worked great. On a a warmer spring ski day it would be plenty because of the breathable materials under the arms of the jacket.

It could be used for snowshoeing on a warm day because its highly breathable and it has Windstopper and Apex softshell for protection, but in general for winter activities it would be better as a mid-layer.
