When you're pushing hard up steep couloirs or carving fresh lines in the backcountry, the Outdoor Research Cirque II Pants deliver the technical performance serious female mountaineers demand. These feature-packed soft shell pants combine wind and water resistance with Movement Mirroring Stretch technology, giving you unrestricted mobility whether you're navigating tricky alpine climbing sequences or linking turns through variable snow conditions. The integrated avalanche beacon pocket with secure clip keeps your safety gear exactly where you need it, while Kevlar-reinforced scuff guards laugh off crampon strikes and rock scrapes that would shred lesser pants. Gusseted ankle zippers with boot integration make transitions seamless, and the bluesign approved fabric blend proves you don't have to choose between peak performance and environmental responsibility – perfect for women who tackle the mountains as seriously as they take their gear choices.
