These do the job.

I think these pants are getting a bad rap. So I'll address a couple of things.
A. They are full zip snow pants, not rain pants, if it's raining, you'll probably get some water through the zippers.
B. Waterproof pants need to be taken care of differently than normal pants, if you are going to be washing them, make sure you use a detergent and restorer. Mtn Hardwear can recommend what kind.

That being said,
They have been great for me so far. I have used them snowboarding, snowshoeing, and have done some light mountaineering in them. When I got them one of the zippers wouldn't release, MH took care of that for me fast. They are a bit baggier than a typical mountaineering pant, but not excessively, like snowboarding pants would be.
I have used gaiters with them, so really can't comment about the gaiters. The suspenders take a little getting used to, but weren't really much of a bother.
