Summary

Love this bag.

Pros

  • Super light
  • Packs small
  • Stretchy

Cons

  • No draft tube

Quality construction, no cold spots, packs down small. I use this with a Sea to Summit 15 degree liner and it's a perfect two-season bag.

I bought this sleeping bag for Philmont this summer.

Rating: rated 5 of 5 stars
Price Paid: $249

I bought this sleeping bag for Philmont this summer. I love the  18oz weight but I was concerned about the temperature rating of 40 degrees, would that be warm enough for the nights at Philmont. At Philmont they require you to have sleep clothes, mine are capilene tops and bottoms # 2 I believe.

I did a shakedown hike at Oak Mountain State Park in AL. The first night temps got in the low 30's and I was toasty as I could be! What a great bag! It had plenty of stretch in it, as I tend to move around quite a bit.

The next night was in the 40's and I left it partially unzipped because i was too hot!I highly recommend this bag .
