Gear Review
base camp winner
By Ingrid Backstrom
Ranked #215 - 0 to -40 Degree Down Bags
March 23, 2010
This bag has helped me sleep great at base camp on several trips now--at elevation, very cold temperatures, on snow, everywhere. I am a cold sleeper but I find that if I just wear a thin set of long undies, there has only been one night in this bag where i was a bit chilly for a few minutes, but I just battened down the hatches and put a hot water bottle at my feet and soon enough I warmed up. Highly recommend for any base camp situation!
