There’s definitely enough snow on the ground for snowshoes, but it appears to be sleet/drizzling outside. Good thing you brought The North Face Women’s Venture Parka up to the cabin. The waterproof breathable HyVent fabric and fully taped seams block wetness while armpit zip vents make sure you don’t get sweaty and clammy. This parka’s standard fit works well over a warm fleece or softshell in winter and a long-sleeve performance shirt in spring.

Awesome Jacket

Rating:*****
Lots of room for wearing a fleece underneath on cooler days and keeps you nice and dry. I just add under armour cold gear and my Venture pants and I am warm and dry and looking great all day.

Got this jacket for working outside occasionally in the Pacific NW. The dark green color really hides the dirt and keeps me dry
