You Complete me Rain Shadow...tear falling from my eye

Alright, here's the deal on this jacket. I live and ski in Colorado (mostly). If you ski here, and more so if you Telemark like I do, layering is paramount. I was looking for a final layer shellthat is not too hot and heavy that I can wear over my micro puff. This is PERFECT. If its really warm, you can go with this jacket over a Cap 3 or a regulator mid layer. If its cold, you can throw this over the base layers + a micro puff or fleece and it will keep you dry. This baby feels/is elements tested. Furthermore, this will keep your micro puff from tearing on a tree or your pole if you tumble. Plus, there a nice inside pocket for the iPod and its thin enough to turn on and off with glove through the jacket. PRIME TIME, in my opinion. This jacket completes me!
