Versatile jacket.

I took this jacket to the Katmai Preserve in Alaska in August and had the opportunity to test it in sun, wind, rain, and cold. It performed beautifully, and I appreciated all the pockets, the hood, and the ability to remove the inner jacket. It packed well too. I'm 6' and I got the large, which fit well. ... and by fit well, I mean there was still enough room to add a fleece jacket underneath (one morning was cold!) without feeling cramped.
