Here's what other sites are saying:

From Oregon Mountain Community:
"The Western Mountain Apaches are built with attitude! They won't take no for an answer as they willingly push the bounds of a 2-season bag. These bags have a full 3-Dimensionally sewn down filled collar to seal in heat when the weather takes a turn for the worse! The efficient cut lets you heat the bag quickly and gives you a lighter parcel to carry about. 19 oz. of high lofting down pumps up a durable 6" of loft. The Gore Windstopper™ shell is very weather resistant while remaining extremely breathable. The Apache in Gore Windstopper™ fabric is a very efficient package that is built like a pint sized winter bag. It's full down collar and draft tube are capped with Gore Windstopper™ fabric. Gore Windstopper™ shell fabric provides maximum protection against external moisture. At a total weight of 2 lbs. 6 oz. you'll be amazed just how much cold these bags will tame.

"This bag is the perfect fit, no joke. Sometimes I doubt these reviews because they always seem so positive. But this is a great bag, perhaps perfect for my area, the Northeast AT from Virginia through Vermont. It really comes down to perfection in the cut."

Reviewed by Dennis Roscetti, Jul 15, 1997

"The bag is very warm, and stuffs small. Haven't pushed it anywhere near its rated temperature yet, so I don't know how accurate it is. Dryloft fabric is noisy, and makes the bag harder to stuff; microfiber might have been a better choice. Dryloft DOES keep the breeze off though."
