User Review: Marmot Teton

I am new to backpacking so I researched and read good reviews on this bag and got a great price so I went with it. I am a 5'4" guy and men's bags are too long so I thought I'd try a women's.

It is awesome! Tried it last night in 19F degrees in 5inches of snow with an old piece of carpet and an old cheapo sleeping bag for a pad with just the raincover of my tent. No floor or even groundcloth.

I had to loosen up the cinches on the hood to let some heat out. Had fleece pants, Under Armour shirt and fleece shirt, two pair of socks, and a beanie. I could have slept in shorts and a t-shirt. I know the bag is new and has its best loft now, but it easily could have passed its 0F degree rating. It even has pockets by the feet to hold handwarmers.

Only con is I'm afraid of how hot it will be in warmer weather, but I can unzip and not wear the hood. It is a 0 bag after all. Excellent quality, looking forward to more cold nights!
