Mountain Hardwear Banshee 0 Sleeping Bag: 0 Degree Down
Worked Great!

Ranked #284 - 0 to -40 Degree Down Bags
April 2, 2010
Used this bag for 4 nights on the AT, nightly temps into the 20's/30's. Used it on a Thermarest Prolite Plus and kept me plenty warm, though haven't gotten to test it down to zero yet. I was in the Copper Spur 3 Tent which kept us completely dry, so never got to test the waterproofness either, but I never intended to try out this feature, just wanted it as insurance to protect the down. The stuff sack stuffs this puppy down pretty small and it fit nicely in the bottom on my ArcTeryx Naos 55. Also, I got it to compress down to smaller than the specs say. Don't remember exactly how small it was, but I would say about 8" x 12" fully compressed. The baffles and zippers worked great and all-in-all I am looking forward to using it again. Downside? Expensive.
