Ok folks, hoping to get a little direction here. I'm dong the mountaineers route on Mt. Whintey in April 2013. I've been looking at pants and the choices are very overwhelimg. Basically i'm looking at my shoftshell climbing pant. I'm stuck between a couple different ones. I'll have a different hardshell to put over but this will be for the hike geting there and summit day. Just when I think I've got it narrowed down I find something else.
Here are a couple of pants I've been looking at:
Marmot Entrada
Arcteryx Gamma AR
First Ascent guide lite
North Face Meteor
North Face Apex
Any advice or suggestinos you can give will be great. This will be a 4 day trip wearing crampons etc.
Thanks in advance.
