Gear Review
Warm like a goose!

This is a great down jacket. Super light, easily packed, and ultra warm. I've worn it to the bar and on summits in December. Never fails. The outer shell is a bit delicate but is stands up well. I highly suggest this jacket when sleeping in a snow cave. It kept me toasty on many cold nights. Best mountaineering down jacket I've used yet.
