This is an awesome jacket for any type of snow-sport. I used mine all last winter and it is still in tip top shape! It fits great, its very water proof, and it is nice and warm. The under arm zip's are ideal for venting while hiking and high perspiration activities. Lots of good storage in the pockets, and i LOVE the goggle pocket on the inside... A must have if you hike often!

Hi, a few questions: 1. At what cold temperatures is this jacket comfortable when all parts are used together? 2. Same question, when using just the liner? How much less protection from the cold does this liner have compared to a down liner? 3. Is the hood removable? 4. How long is the jacket? Does it go to the thigh (i.e., fully cover the butt)? Thanks.

I used this jacket with the The North Face Monte Cargo Print Pant. Great integration with the pow skirt to pant connection. It's a great design because this jacket's pow skirt will clip into the belt loops of any pant on the market... Very compatible, versatile jacket!!!

Neil - what pants / bibs did you use with that jacket this past year? I'm trying to find a good kit that has good jacket / pant integration.
