Mountain Hardwear Firefall Jacket - Women's Violet Stone/Purple Sage, L

The Firefall Jacket puts insulation where it matters most and pulls it back where it doesn't. Two-layer waterproof DrySpell fabric holds up against storm days, while ThermoCloud insulation runs at 80 grams through the body for core warmth and drops to 60 grams at the hood and sleeves so reaching and turning never feels stiff. Mesh-backed underarm zips dump heat fast once the pace picks up, and an internal powder skirt ties into a compatible pant to seal out snow at the waist. A helmet-compatible hood with a three-way drawcord locks in coverage on stormy laps. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I've stood on cold chairlifts feeling warm through my core, then unzipped the underarm vents on the hike to a stash and cooled off in seconds without stripping a layer. The hood cinches down enough to stay put under my helmet on windy ridgelines."
