I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Description

Why We Like The Black Diamond First Light Stretch Hooded Jacket

When it comes to insulated jackets, Black Diamond offers a wide range of options. However, the First Light Stretch Hooded Jacket stands out as the most breathable choice. It is specially designed for alpine climbs, backcountry tours, and fast movement in cold mountain conditions. The jacket features Primaloft Silver Active insulation, a high-performance insulation that keeps us warm even when we're working up a sweat. What makes this jacket even more impressive is the use of Schoeller softshell fabric for the insulation, which provides excellent stretch and water resistance. Whether you're facing snowflakes or light moisture, this jacket will keep you dry. The regular fit of the jacket includes underarm gussets to ensure maximum freedom of movement during your adventures. Additionally, the hem and climbing helmet-compatible hood are adjustable, allowing for a snug fit in any situation.
