"Used my Avalanche Parka extensively from day 1. Used it for skiing, ice climbing, mountaineering, backpacking, and I even wore it almost daily during the late fall, winter and spring. I'd estimate that I must have worn it about 700 times ! A good test eh ?

Well, during this time, I've no problems at all with any sort of leakage."

"pros:

great hood - snug to the face, kept periferal vision clear, turned when head turned.

interior pockets - great for keeping water bottle thawed

cons:

had a lot of trouble with this jacket. sierra designs warrantied it each time, after the third or fourth incident they gave me a full store credit (for the full suggested retail price) rather than give me ANOTHER replacement jacket."

"I've had this jacket for about 2-3 years now. Excellent jacket! Great for all-around use. Although I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who sweats alot when they are active as it isn't the best when it comes to breathability, even with the vents. Only problem I've had with it is it has recently begun to de-laminate around the hood and in spot areas on the front thus allowing water to "soak" into the material leaving wetspots in the rain."
