From Altrec Outdoors:
"The Bighorn is an oversized twenty-degree mummy bag with Heatshield Optimal Technology SL insulation."

From Backcountry.com:
"Like the name implies, the Bighorn Bx 20 Degree Bag is a generously oversized synthetic-fill sleeping bag, and it features The North Face's Heatshield Optimal SL technology to give you lasting, durable loft. Long versions of most bags don't seem to get much wider, just longer which is great if you're a beanpole. The Bighorn Bx is already bigger than most bags in its Regular length, and it's bigger around as well, affording Paul Bunyan types the same pleasant sleeping experience their average-sized companions get from The North Face."

From Backcountry Outlet:
"The tall boy of sleeping bags, the North Face Bighorn is extra long with a maximum user height of 6ft and 4in. This is one of TNF's longest sleeping bags. At almost 6 inches longer than most TNF bags, the Bighorn employs all of the features The North Face is known for: thermal efficiency, loft, and easy compression. The insulation has an overlapping construction so it doesn't move around, effectively eliminating cold spots for fall or spring camping. For summer or fall camping, the hood-and-chest adjustable drawcord allows you to control your temperature by sealing in heat or letting heat out. It's big. It's warm. It's worth it. *Not Available for Shipment to Canada."

"Went to Big Bear, slept in a cabin (nights in cabin ranging in the 40-50s) with this bag and was very pleased.

When bundled up it was like described and according to the small form factor, yet when open allowed sufficient room to move around. This sleeping bag is slightly bigger than normal which was what I was aiming for since I like room to move around."
