Mountain Hardwear Ultralamina 15 Sleeping Bag: 15 Degree Synthetic
Reason this Bag Gets Great Reviews
By mer3114407
Ranked #171 - 25 to 5 Degree Synthetic Bags
July 25, 2009
I'm 5'6" and 135lbs .. this bag was a tad large but that never once matter. It compresses down to really small wad with the included compression sack. I must add. The compression sack it came with is nicer than most you buy. I especially liked the release buckle. I wish all compression sacks had that.
In addition to the arm zips (which are convenient) .. there is a small storage pocket with zipper. This is really useful for all sorts of stuff you might need at night: eye mask, ear plugs, flash light, contact lens solution.
The bag is warm. I used it on my summit of Mt Rainier in July .. and I can I was VERY toasty.
Its a tad heavier than real down. But its a lot cheaper and has the advantages of synthetic.
If you're interested in seeing how my Rainier trip went. I've got a video up on youtube:
