I'm looking for a new jacket and I really like North Face's Maching Jacket:

Love the colorways, design and everything. The jacket I'm replacing is 10 years old and I didn't pay much attention to insulation rating back then.
Just how warm is a 60G, 80G jacket? I will be doing all of my snowboarding in Lake Tahoe, where it's usually 30-40's.
Sidenote, I recently bought the North Face Alligare Jacket:

Upon delivery, I find it a tad bit loose and bulky and I may return it. I read that is usually the case with a 3-in-1 jacket?
And yes, I would like Gore-Tex. This jacket is going to last me the next 5-10years (I hope!)
Thank you everyone.
