What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: “I’ve used this jacket on early-morning tours and cold belays where weight really matters. It’s shockingly warm for how light it is, layers perfectly under a shell, and disappears in my pack when I don’t need it. This is one of those pieces I bring on almost every trip.” We count on the Ghost Whisperer Hooded Jacket when warmth needs to come without weight. Designed by Mountain Hardwear for high-output missions and cold stops alike, this ultralight puffy is easy to stash in a pack and even easier to rely on when temperatures drop. From pre-dawn starts to breezy transitions, it’s always ready when we need it. The recycled Whisperer Ripstop shell keeps things incredibly light while resisting wind and light moisture, and lofty 800-fill down traps heat efficiently for mid-winter conditions. Synthetic insulation in the cuffs helps prevent moisture buildup, while the adjustable hood seals in warmth when the cold sets in. Highly packable and barely noticeable at just 8. 8 ounces, this jacket proves that serious insulation doesn’t have to slow us down.
