Awesome construction. I m 5'10" 170 lbs with wide shoulder. The shoulder width is perfect, and the neck cuff stops the heat leaving the bag. Came with stuff sack, and storage sack! Used it a few times in snow conditions, the outer fabric resist water very well.

This version has the biggest improvement in design, the side pouch is big enough to put in a thermarest and tools. The kangaroo pouch is weden so that shovel can go in and out easily. The little thing that i didnt like is the 2 cord stops they used at the upper closure, i can see why they want to put the flat pull-string stops rather the simple traditional ones., but it just does not work, but $2.00 can fix it. I used to have Bora 40 , and previous version of Borea, this version shows the versatility and nice choice of fabric.

If you are looking for a versatile snow saw, this is the one, lightweight and compact. Cuts very well. The only thing that can be improved is the handle ... if they can make it a little bigger, it would fit our gloves/mittens better.

The low-profile Bib is good for backcountry where we constantly shed and put on layers of clothing. The biggest benefit of this bib is the buttock opening, when nature calls, it delivers ... =)

Climbing on steep terrain, you can feel the big difference on the heel lift, much more grip than others.

The polarized lens are very sharp on all corners, fit is good. The only thing is that it doesn't come with a case.

Awesome design of '04 model of Bora 65, bigger adjustable side-pockets, lighter overall weight. Waterproof zippers. There is some room for perfection. Should consider built-in rain-cover, end-cover for zipper-ends.

For people who like a cozy tent, this is the one. I bought this in late summer 2003, and used it for 3 different weekends in 3 different terrains. Alpine in Whistler BC, Coast/Beach in Olympic National Park, Hot/Dry in Okanagan. Ventilation is very good. Packed very compact, even with the footprint together. We got heavy rain one night on the coast, we stayed completely dry, the fly has bigger coverage than I thought. Tent lines on the fly are well-designed to provide good drainage away from the tent. Fits 2 men comfortably. I am 5'10", and my friend is 6'.
