The mountains are predictably unpredictable, so we always stuff the Mountain Hardwear Stretch Ozonic Insulated Jacket in our multi-day pack even if the forecast says sun. The breathable membrane and fully sealed seams stop the inevitable rain and snow from soaking through, while the body-mapped insulation holds in warmth without making us overheat. When the terrain gets more technical, we open the underarm zippers to boost airflow. And when the winds pick up, we cinch the hood and hem tight to stop the cold and the wet from blowing inside.
