Exped Wallcreeper 650 Sleeping Bag: 20 Degree Down
From big-wall ledges to hastily dug snow caves, the Exped Wallcreeper 650 Sleeping Bag is a versatile sleep system that functions as a sleeping bag, blanket, or belay parka. Fluffy 750-fill goose down provides highly-compressible warmth that won’t weigh down your haul bag or backpack. The Wallcreeper’s unique design functions like a standard mummy bag when fully zipped, and it opens up into a large blanket for two with the full-length center zip. The parka-style hood and side arm-hole zippers let you wear the bag while you brew up or organize gear, and a footbox cinch cord lets you wear it as a jacket for belaying. Exped also included a roll-top dry sack for keeping the down dry.
Bottom Line: It’s a jacket. It’s a blanket. It’s a sleeping bag. It’s awesome.

Does this actually work as a sleeping bag and all that?

It does, and the Wallcreeper 650 represents a slow shift from the traditional sleeping bag + pad sleep system. In the push to create ultralight gear, functionality, comfort and in some cases, safety, were occasionally compromised. There are now at least two branches off the traditional sleep arrangement tree. One is the quilt system, which is closest to the Big Agnes bag-n-pad system (though for BA, it's still just a bag) but relies only on a quilt + attached pad (no sleeve), such as the GoLite Ultra. This is gaining in popularity as it is both highly efficient and ultralight without sacrificing function, warmth, or safety. The other branch is the multi-use bag, where the traditional bag is convertible into more than one use. This eliminates the need to take, in this instance, certain layer elements for cooler weather (when stationary).
As these two branches continue to gain popularity, expect even more innovative approaches and a further separation from the traditional bag system.
