I purchased this bag because I was tired of being cold and the sales person at Midwest Mountaineering said that this was the bag to buy. I also needed a really lightweight bag for a long backpacking trip.

I have owned this bag and used it for about 2.5 years and still love it. The loft is amazing and held up over 2 months of hiking with it. I have washed it and it still continues to provide great warmth.

The only downside to this bag is that as with all down, it doesn't do well in wet climates. I got pretty cold winter camping due to the amount of moisture in the tent which fell onto the bag. It is great for a dry climate and cool temps.
