If your hunts for pow are taking you off the piste, it's time to invest in the pow explorers jacket of choice, the 686 GLCR Helix Thermagraph Jacket. Upon your first wear, you'll understand why backcountry-mongers lean on its powerful technology. For extended trips from the parking lot, Thermagraph™ Insulation will keep your body temp controlled by strategically placing Hyperfresh Insulation and ventilation zones throughout the jacket. You'll end up moving around much more efficiently without building up loads of moisture. Toss in an InfiDRY® 20 membrane and Bemis® fully taped seams and you'll be swimming in snow without letting a drop of water into the jacket. The 686 Helix Thermagraph Jacket is really working just as hard as you are!
