"Bomber shell!" - Review of Mountain Hardwear Backcountry Recon Parka - Men's

Most of my time outdoors is spent rock climbing, hiking, and camping. This shell has proven itself worthy on all of these activities. The reinforced shoulders are a must for hiking when you've got a heavy pack on. I've spent all day outside in a cold, windy, raining campsite and this jacket kept me dry and warm. I've done some chimney climbs in this jacket, and not only did I have complete freedom of movement, but the shell doesn't have a scratch on it. Here is a bomb-proof way to layer that works well for me down to about 15F: Patagonia midweight long sleeve, Mountain Hardwear Windstopper tech fleece, and top it off with the Recon Parka.
