"This bag is really nice and I am quite happy with it. Before this bag I have used traditional rectangle bags and a down mummy that is older than I am 23+, This bag has kept me warm I have been in snow on Mt Hood, in early/mid June and I was just toasty though it can get a little warm in during the warmer months but that is fine just unzip the bar a little."
