Silky polyester Enduralite ripstop shell and liner fabric. Vaulted ergonomic footbed. Full-length zipper. Full-length draft tube. Shoulder-level zip pocket. Easy, one-handed hood closure. Easy-grab zipper pulls. Nylon stuff sack included. Mateable - Order right or left side zipper."

From Backcountry.com:
"Summer camping in the Utah's northern mountains calls for a cozy sleeping bag such as The North Face Wasatch Bx Sleeping Bag. The North Face stuffed this 40-degree sleeping bag with Heatshield Optimal Technology (HOT) SL, a lightweight, durable synthetic insulation that traps air. Your body heat warms that air to help you stay toasty after sunset when temps drop. Overlapping shingle construction eliminates cold spots, and a hood zipper lets you cover your face against a cold draft or vent when the night is balmier than you expected. Stash your headlamp in the shoulder-level zip pocket, and get comfy."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"Perfect for warm weather camping, The North Face Wasatch 40 Degree Sleeping Bag is a mummy bag that keeps campers warm in 40 F temperatures beneath its lightweight synthetic insulation. Designed with a silky taffeta shell and liner, the Wasatch 40 is a comfortable bag that includes easy-to-use, technical features."

"I bought mine about a year ago to use while bicycle touring/backpacking/canoeing. Light weight, smallish packing size and synthetic fill for moisture issues were my priorities in a new bag for spring summer and fall. Chose North Face because of good luck with the Goliath bag that has lasted ten years and lots of nights out."

"I just bought this North Face Wasatch 40 degree bag before the Memorial Day weekend for a 2-night backpacking trip in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. I got a dark green regular, since they had no larges left. I am 6"2' and 240 pounds and I still fit in the regular size."

"It was a great sleep. I was looking for an ultralight summer bag that didn't cost me a fortune. In a tent on a night in the fifty's it was just the ticket. With a sale going on on the bag I got it for a steal and on my limited experience with it, I got a lot more than I paid for it."

"I bought this bag to use on a 60 mile trek at Philmont Scout camp this summer. I used it on a 20 mile shakedown trip and found it to be very adequate for my needs. It is light (I have the long which weighs in at 2 lbs 10 oz) and it stuffs down into its stuff sack to a very manageable size that fits nicely inside my Jansport Carson external frame backpack."
