Absolutely killer jacket. Bought it to use for teaching a backpacking class in the late fall in high mountains of Idaho where it can get pretty cold pretty quick. Used it in -10f weather with a baselayer underneath and shell on top and stayed toasty the whole time. Provides an honestly impressive amount of wind resistance even on the seams. A lot of people claim durability issues but I've used it climbing, backpacking, and bikepacking for about two years now and it's done amazingly. Well done Mountain Hardwear!

Fantastic Ul Hoody!
A great addition to my backpacking layering system. Ridiculously lightweight for the degree of warmth that it provides, either as a mid-layer on winter hikes, or added warmth during rest stops/around camp. Delighted with the purchase!

Far Too Fragile
I've been doing section hikes of the AT over the last couple years and bought the Ghost Whisper 2 because it was so highly recommended. A month ago I decided to upgrade to the UL to save an ounce or so and gain some packability. I wore it a few times around the house and then noticed down feathers spilling out. I don't know how, but I had a 1" tear on the front in the middle of a baffle. Used some Tenacious tape to repair it and its holding. I wore it on a section hike last week with no issues, but I think the fabric is just too fragile, even for just around town or camp use. I wouldn't buy it again and would instead get another Ghost Whisperer 2. Its not worth the extra cost or reduced durability.
