The Great Auk is designed as an overbag, but also serves as an excellent stand-alone bag. Like all Feathered Friends bags, it is superbly made from top-notch materials. There is no insulation on the underside, but a polyester sleeve that accepts a ground pad. The cut is a bit odd--roomy around the shoulders and foot, but narrower in the middle. This makes it less than ideal for its intended purpose as an overbag. It is a bit confining when used over a bulkier mummy. As a stand-alone bag, though, it is close to the ideal. The EPIC shell fabric is highly water-resistant and less crinkly that the Gore membranes they used to use.
