Does anyone have extensive experience with bibs above treeline? and in tecnical alpine climbing scenarios (NE 2-3+). I am looking to upgrade my heavy alpine pants and am torn between a pair of pants with suspenders or a particular bib.
My impression is that a bib is the way to go ... ie. better coverage. I cant really imagine a downside other than excessive warmth, weight, and another layer to constrain movement. The pants might offer more versatility for those warmer weather alpine climbs.
Any comments or advice would be appreciated.
