Really a great bag--very light relative to the warmth. However, like all bags, I've found that at 12,000+ foot elevations, you must assume the bag will not keep you nearly as warm as nearer to sea level. So, in the case of the Snowshoe, if you're up really high, it's basically a 10 to 20 degree bag, not a zero degree bag. I've pretty much frozen in a NF Cat's Meow on the Continental Divide Trail in southwestern Colorado in the summer; however, I've been mostly comfortable in the Snowshoe.
