Awesome down jacket - Mountain Hardwear Ghost Whisperer Down Jacket - Women's

After careful research and speaking with many a woman thru-hiker, I started bargain shopping for a Ghost Whisperer Down Jacket. When it arrived I could not believe how light it was. The small fit perfectly. (I am 5'8", 150 pounds) with room for a base layer and a middle fleece layer. The sleeves are a great length, going just a little bit longer so it covers ends of gloves and the elastic is tight enough to prevent cold air from going up the sleeve. I've worn it twice hiking. The first time in 28 degree weather without precipitation and I had to remove the fleece layer because it was just too warm. Then the second time I was out for 5 hours both shoveling snow, then hiking around town and up into Shenandoah National Park. Lightly falling snow gave way to a sleet/snowy mix - it was sub 30 degree weather. I kept the fleece on this time (it has a hood that I kept on, the jacket does not have a hood) and I was toasty warm the whole time and the jacket kept me dry. I wasn't sure about the color but the price sold me! I like the color now that I've worn it and received several compliments. Great jacket!
