As for testing, myself and partner used a couple today in fairly severe conditions, and they really do work. It's amazing how well they breath when you're warm, but close up and become a bullet proof hard shell when it gets cold. Koven Plus jacket, according to Cloudveil:

I've checked out the area a bit on google maps. I'm looking for nearby blue type runs with little avalanche danger. I typically stay in the trees. I live in New Castle. Thanks!
