Why We Like The Mountain Hardwear Ghost Whisperer Jacket
The Mountain Hardwear Ghost Whisperer Jacket is our go-to jacket for any cold-weather activities, keeping us warm and toasty whether we're climbing at the crag or skinning our way into the mountains for some spring touring. This jacket is ridiculously light, clocking in under half a pound, but doesn't sacrifice comfort or performance in pursuit of shaving ounces. The lofty 800-fill down insulation keeps us warm on winter ski days and cool mountain camping trips, and it's protected by durable Whisper Ripstop material and a water-repellent treatment to ensure we stay warm in all conditions.

What I Was Looking For
I haven't had an opportunity to wear it while camping yet. The fit is perfect and not too tight; will allow for layering. Lightweight and will be perfect for chilly mornings and should be fine for colder temps with MHW Grid Fleece added. I am 5'6" 155 and ordered a medium.

Ultra compact
Very light and great for trips when space is at a premium. Not super warm, but a perfect layer.

Sizing Issue
This is my second Ghost Whisperer, so that should speak volumes. I ordered the medium as I am the same build as the model and thought all would be good. The jacket is a perfect fit, as long as I don't reach forward. When I do, the jacket becomes very tight around the lat section of my back, which isn't good when you are reaching, like when scrambling or climbing. I am 6'1" 170lbs.

Great jacket and amazing material.
This jacket is superb, top of the line materials and warm. I love the design of the cuffs and the color ways. Unfortunately the Ghost Whisperer 2 runs very small, all of my Mountain Hardwear gear I’ve worn XL including my Absolute Zero summit suit but a XXL in this jacket ran VERY snug. Didn’t give me a lot of room to move around but it served its purpose.

Good overall jacket.
This jacket is versatile, light weight and comfortable. My only complaint is the zipper gets snag a lot more than a jacket of this quality/cost.

📸 I’m an amateur photographer always chasing the next shot—whether it’s city streets or skyline views in the chilly Northeast. I needed a super light outer layer I could easily throw on over a hoodie or under a heavier coat. Enter: this jacket. Total game changer! Featherlight, super warm, and never bulky—it lets me move freely and keep snapping away even when the temps drop into finger-numbing territory. It's basically my new adventure buddy. Can’t wait to hit more streets with my GW2 and this trusty layer. Thanks for making something that actually works! 🙌

A little bummed
Threads inside the pocket came apart the first time I wore it

Great brand, my only trusted winter jacket
Excited for this jacket as my last mountain hardware jacket lasted 13 years, would have last longer but zipper caught inside pocket and ripped fabric. Last one I wore on north slope of Alaska hunting caribou on many trips. My only initial worry is about future wear on the sleeve, as I wish it had double layers.

Very nice down jacket, hope it holds up
Great looking jacket, comfortable and a great color. Fit is good and moves really well during activities. Only concern is the delicate zipper, I wonder how long the fine teeth and tinny zipper will last…Fabric is super soft and 800 down loft is consistent. Very nice product, just hope it holds up over time!

Didn’t like the cuffs or lack of pockets
I bought this as a layer for skiing with a Gortex shell. I returned the jacket. The lack of elastic in the cuffs and no chest pocket were deal breakers for me
