Marmot Arete Sleeping Bag: 40 Degree Down

Item #MAR1123 | 5 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Fire Breathing Dragon of Awesomeness!!!!

By Ranked #131 - 55 to 30 Degree Down Bags September 14, 2011

Just returned from a three day loop in CO with this red devil of warmth. The first morning after camping at 11k feet I woke shockingly to find frozen water. At least an inch thick of solid ice at the top of my cooking pan! I slept like a baby the entire night using my Arete as an open quilt. Granted I was wearing a light down jacket, and medium socks. Everyone else in the group froze that night using significantly warmer bags (30 & 25). You can't go wrong with this bag, especially weighing in at under 2 lbs, are you kidding ME!!
