Hard-working, easy-to-wear ski pants

As a patroller, I don't get the option to go in when it's too cold or rainy or hot, so I need ski pants that can take on the weather and still keep me the right temperature and dry. The North Face Freedom Pants do that. They are breathable so when you're sweaty from skiing through the bumps or digging out fencing and you jump on the lift, you don't freeze, and the moisture just wicks away. The side zips are convenient and easy to open when you need to cool off in a hurry. I can sit on the snow working an accident or just hanging out and they keep me dry. The construction is rugged and can stand up to hard work on the slopes, yet they are a really nice looking pair of pants to wear on a ski trip. I LOVE the fact that I can hang a lift ticket off the side vent zipper down near my knee so that it is totally out of my way and totally visible. I like having multiple pockets. The cargo pocket is great, in particular, for stuffing something away in a hurry. Thanks, North Face!
