From Backcountry.com:
"As the name implies, the versatile water-resistant Exped Wallcreeper PL Sleeping Bag Parka Blanket is a sleeping bag of many uses. Sleep through soggy spring bivouacs or wait out drizzling conditions on an alpine wall; water-resistant PrimaLoft Sport gives this versatile bag insulation for climbing in cold, wet environments. The lightweight, seamless ripstop shell packs down for minimal bulk in your pack. Zippered arm openings allow you to belay, boil water, or rack gear from the comfort of the bag. A drawcord-adjustable foot section allows the Wallcreeper PL to function as a sleeping bag when you have boots on. Tighten the bottom drawcord around your waist and the bag can be worn as a camp parka. A full-length center zipper allows easy entry and exit and lets the bag open into a blanket. Insulated pockets on the exterior of the bag give your fingers refuge during frigid belays. The parka-style hood uses elastic drawcords to create a tight seal that traps in warm air and keeps out cold, damp weather."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"When going light can make all the difference, the Exped Wallcreeper PL 40 Degree Sleeping Bag is one item you'll want to throw in your pack. This multi-purpose sleeping bag is the ultimate chameleon. You can wear it cinched around your waist as a parka, extend it full length for lounging around camp (or quick bivying with your boots on), or zip it open as a comforter/blanket. When it's time to bed down, close everything up for the ultimate ultra-light sleeping bag. Zippered armholes give you convenient out of bag access for melting snow and sorting gear without leaving the comfort of your bag. A lightweight ripstop nylon shell, with efficient PrimaLoft Sport water resistant insulation, completes this versatile three season comfort system."

Reviewed by Strummystick, Jan 22, 2005

"I hiked the Vermont Long Trail end to end with this bag during the summer of 2005. (All 270-ish miles . . . and I was 50 years old. I brag . . . I can't help it. ) Its versatility more than makes up for its lack of warmth. The perfect solution is to bring along a lightweight liner, because the bag was perfect 90% of the time."
