Great Lightweight Bag!

I purchased the long version of the Hydrogen bag and used it recently during a 10-day August backpacking trip to the Maroon Bells/Snowmass area in Colorado.

The size of the bag concerned me a bit because I'm 6'3" and 240 lb. I had no fit issues. There was plenty of shoulder, hip and foot room for a larger person.

The bag's 1.5 lb weight and its ability to compress is amazing! It freed up all kinds of pack space!

The bag kept me perfectly warm on a couple 34 degree nights. 900 fill down, draft tube and hood worked well to prevent heat loss.

To save weight Marmot installed only a half zipper on the bag. My only complaint with the bag is that I wish the zipper was about 6-8" longer. It would making getting into and out of the bag a bit easier. It did however, only take a couple nights to get use having only a partial zipper. Not a huge issue.

Bottom line is that I loved this sleeping bag!
