LL Bean Wardens Coat. At a minimum, you want a parka that falls below the hip. I am also a believer in detachable hoods (in super cold, I use a hat and the hood) You should research the difference between down and synthetic insulation to be sure you get what will work best for you. The better LL Bean products will last a long time.

Can vouch for the Maine Warden's parka, although if there's a strong possibility you're going to be physically active for prolonged periods where you will end up sweating a lot you're going to want to consider parkas using synthetic insulation as mentioned above or maybe a hooded wool coat like those from Johnson Woolen Mills.
