Layers are the trick, same as in back-country skiing. Below freezing temps a windproof breathable softshell is best over an insulating layer. If it is snowing and/or very windy, throw on a breathable hardshell with pit-zips to improve ventilation. Same goes for rainy conditions (with less insulation), but as others have pointed out, in high humidity only increased ventilation can help.
