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.

Ortles AM Jacket - Men's

Description

Why We Like The Salewa Ortles AM Jacket

A hybrid wool fleece for alpine adventures, the Salewa Ortles Alpine Merino Jacket is a softshell that insulates without cooking us on our summit bibs. The polyester-wool blend is warm and quick to dry, while Polarite Wool Cordura inserts in the shoulders and sleeves add durability in those high-wear areas. The fabric provides 4-way stretch with ergonomic sleeves and shoulders, so we enjoy a full range of motion when we're climbing or skiing.

Details:

  • Hybrid fleece-wool midlayer best for mountaineering and ski touring
  • Alpine merino fleece regulates our temperature and moisture
  • Athletic fit and elastane fibers add stretch for a full range of motion
  • Thumb loops for easier layering and extra coverage
