The North Face Nuptse Jacket - Men's
Nuptse Jacket In the Rockies
By Anonymous
Ranked #479 - Men's Down Jackets
January 25, 2008
I just got back from spending a week in the Rockies, and had a blast on the slopes and the trails. I spent all day out in the elements and the nights back in town. While there the temp dropped to -2 degrees with a wind chill of -45 degrees and dumped 8" of snow. I only wore lightweight under armer, a lightweight shirt, and the jacket. I got HOT while hiking, and stayed very warm on the slopes. I just wish I had bought better boots, as my toes were the only things that got cold. The jacket is PERFECT, and I will buy another when the time comes.
