Big Agnes Ethel Sleeping Bag: 0 Degree Down - Women's

Stay warm and don't feel constrained when you sleep in the Big Agnes Women's Ethel Sleeping Bag. Big Agnes tailored the Ethel Sleeping Bag specifically for women by giving it additional girth in the hip area and extra insulation in the foot box and core area. A durable, water-repellent nylon shell protects this 0-degree sleeping bag stuffed with 600-fill down. Down retains your body heat to keep you cozy all night. Stuff your fleece jacket into this sleeping bag's pocket to make a pillow. A sleeve on the bottom of this sleeping bag enables you to slide your Big Agnes sleeping pad into it—you'll never wake up lying next to your pad again. Your pad acts as your ground insulation, so get the Big Agnes 20-inch rectangular pad to go with your Ethel.

Bottom Line: Enjoy sleeping outdoors in your warm, cozy 0-degree Ethel down sleeping bag.

soo jealous of my sister's bag

By: runninggirl
June 11, 2008

I backpacked the Tetons with my 2 sisters and she had this bag. She raved so much about her Big Agnes that it was almost like we had a fourth person on the trip, named Agnes. When she gets the sleeping pad inflated and the bag set up in the tent, her bed looks so comfortable and plush, making my little mummy bag look completely pathetic and was dwarfed by Agnes. the bag was really roomy for her too and she could sleep in the fetal position easily while I was limited to one position in my bag.

so if this bag has an underside sleeve for the pad, is it required that you use a pad since the underside insulation has been eliminated for this purpose? do i have to use a hard to find or special smaller sized pad if i order the petite?

Because Big agnes makes the sleeve there is no insulation on the bottom side. You do need a sleeping pad, but they are not hard to find. Just as long as it is a Big agnes pad it will work fine and many come in petite actually.
Take note of the shape - "squared off mummy" make sure the pad is that shape and a petite and you are rocking!

Excellent sleeping bag for cold sleepers

By: Bela
September 25, 2007

I am a cold sleeper with very cold feet and unless I get my feet warm, I cannot fall asleep. My husband bought a Big Agnes a year ago and loves it. So I decided I shall try it and chose the Ethel. We went to Tahoe, the last weekend of August and admittedly the temperature during the nights was comfortably cool, around low 40's. The Ethel was so comfortable that I overslept on both the days. I don't recall sleeping that well in any of my previous camping trips. I also used a thermarest pad. A pad is a must for the Ethel bag. I couldn't feel the hard ground at all. The bag was quite roomy for me and I got the smallest size that they have. I got the left zipper bag, since my husband has the right zipper. We zipped both bags together and that worked out pretty well too. The only problem with that was, mine is a smaller size and he has a regular, so the zip wouldn't go all the way. Since the temp was quite tolerable, we were able to try that and it worked out quite good. Over all, I'm quite happy with the Ethel and am waiting to try it out in much colder conditions.
