I have been climbing and hunting the mountains for 50 years now in many countries. IME gear built for alpinists has led the way for many years.Just got back from wolf hunting in the Sawtooths. Temps ranged from mid 60's in late Oct. to 0 last week. I used a pair of North Face "schoeller" [sp] climbing pants for everything. I added light weight synthetic long johns when it got colder and layered marmot gtx side zipped pants when it was blowing and snowing. I really like the gusset crotch, stretchy material and zippered pocets on theTNF pants. Everything was purchased on sale at REI. Good Gear is always worth the money but getting it in camo is, IMO a waste of money.
