BC Skiing - Best Pant

By Ranked #592 - Men's Softshell Pants November 28, 2008

My favorite pants for BC skiing. These pants break the wind in all but the nastiest howlers, yet shed sweat. I have used these from 10-40 F degrees with no worries. The fit is class Arcteryx (slim athletic fit with great mobility) which works great for high stepping over logs, bushwacking and the joys of BC. So far I have not worn any base layer under these pants. I do carry a Goretex pant on hut trips or long day trips in case of wet snow, but so far everything has beaded up and fell off these pants. I would not recommend these pants for ski area skiing unless the temps were warm.
