This jacket is a piece of equipment that will save your life in extreme wet and windy weather. I have sampled many Gore-tex jackets, and this is the only one that kept me dry in a downpour. It has 3 interior pockets to store things, and keep things from freezing (snacks and drinks). The two outer pockets are roomy enough for extra "snivel" gear.

The hood is extremely functional, and allows you to adjust the fit to a "T". The drawcords can be tightened or loosened without taking your mittens off. And, the armpits can be ventilated easily on the move. Not to mention, the jacket has a lifetime warranty. North Face is really good about making repairs if you happen to break a zipper or draw-cord.

This is the best "Weather Proofing" layer you can buy, and once you own one, you'll never want to buy another jacket. On a satisfaction scale of 1-10, I give it a 15. Kudos to Northface. It's like the Ferrari of jackets.
