There is tons of stuff to choose from but from my snowboarding days, what you spend isn't always equivalent to quality/keeping you dry (nothing worse than spending $150 on pants and having a wet butt while sitting on your second lift of the day). Any good bang for your buck models/brands I should stick with?
REI usually has two or three options. Showers Pass is a bit above that, but if you find a sale you might want to go with them. They are very well built and well designed.
