When the lifts are still open, and we have clear skies and mild weather, the Backcountry Meltdown Water-Resistant Hoodie is the right call. Featuring a lightweight polyester fleece fabric, it is perfect for mild-weather riding when we don't need a shell. The hoodie has a PFC-free DWR treatment to shed moisture so we stay comfortable, and the three-piece hood is adjustable so we cinch it down in bad weather. The kangaroo pouch pocket warms cold hands and the secure zippered pocket houses our valuables.
