Think I may have finally gotten onto a good "glove" system

They’re very warm, especially considering the weight, they also compress pretty small.

They are not overly durable—just a light ripstop, so would probably survive a ski out, but nothing you want to consistently ski with.

Perfect. I'm thinking for having something warm for the person who is hurt or huddled up for the night so they sound like exactly what I'm looking for.

That’s a good and versatile system. Very similar to my system.

I use Outdoor Research outer mittens like these.

Men's Revolution GORE-TEX Mitts | Outdoor Research

The Revolution GORE-TEX Mitt features waterproof and breathable GORE-TEX, EnduraLoft™ Eco insulation, AX Diamond Grip palms, and a loaded feature set for resort runs, sidecountry missions, and deep powder days when the temps plummet well below freezing.

I usually don’t wear or pack the liners that come with them. I’ll wear either lightweight wool gloves like Smartwool or the heavier military version.

If it’s really cold, I’ll use synthetic mittens underneath like the Enlightened Equipment mentioned above.

^ I've got an old pair (20+ years) of a similar OR mitt—Gore shell, reinforced palm—came with a medium weight inner fleece mitt. I still use them on winter trips and still going strong
