From Backcountry.com:
"You really put your equipment and clothes to the test on mountaineering, rock climbing, and backpacking treks, which is why the Marmot Men's Alpinist Jacket is right up your snow-filled, high-altitude alley. The Gore-Tex Pro Shell blocks the elements, and Marmot's Angel-Wing Movement design gives you a full range of arm motion without the torso of this jacket riding up (no more mid-section exposure while you climb). A zip-off powder skirt reduces bulk when you're not waist-deep in the white. Besides the heat-venting pitzips (with water-resistant zippers), the Alpinist boasts laser-drilled pocket backings and hood vents for increased breathability when you're on the move. Pull this shell over your fleece or softshell."

From RockCreek:
"The Alpinist Jacket by Marmot is designed to take you on those long excursions in the backcountry that extend for days, where you will meet up with rain, snow, wind and sunshine. Extreme conditions require only the best gear and the Alpinist is made for that job. A fully waterproof/breathable Gore-Tex Pro Shell that is seam taped to ensure absolute protection, with 3 layers that will never feel clammy or icky inside. The integrated laser drilled pocket backing enhances breathability when moving fast, and cool features for the hood allows a helmet to be worn without limiting your vision. All you need to worry about when summiting a mountain is the top, not your gear."
