Are the Armada vision bibs waterproof enough for pnw

They're 10k and I believe the seams are fully taped. I ski at bachelor which is probably one of the driest pnw resorts. My last pants were shit and full of holes, and I was mostly fine, tho the outsides got wet. Do you think I'll be fine, or will the snow on my legs melt and soak through?

You will be fine but the snow on your legs will melt and soak through sometimes
I'd get something with a little better waterproof rating for bachelor

10k/10k is pretty adequate for most places, but PNW weather will do it's damned best to get through them. I ride 10k/10k in the spring on the East Coast, which gets REALLY wet. I haven't had any permeation yet, but all season and you might not be as lucky
