Just got an Eddie Bauer PEAK XV fully baffled (not sewn-thru) down parka. Yeah, it's a very warm parka for 15 F. and lower but I will use it for stand hunting, backcountry ski camping and alpine skiing at high altitudes.

For hunting I'll wear my home made winter-white camo parka. For frigid, non-snowy days a GTX Realtree Advantage camo parka of mainly brown shades.

This parka is what some call an "expedition" parka. It is designed for mountain climbing in extreme temperatures. Got it on sale for a very good price - just under $300. Others as good as this one start around $550.

I have all kinds of insulated pants including GTX ski pants. Felt pacs will keep my tootsies warm.
