Cred: 188 | | -Very warm
-comfortable fit
-Water resistant
-Did compress* down to a resonable size considering its fill
* Note: I used a sea-to-summit compressable dry sack to store the bag.
I recently used this bag in a New Zealand summer on Fox Glacier, i was told that i would cook in this -40 bag but couldn't afford a smaller bag at the time. The first three days of the trip were spent in a tiny, wet snowcave, due to the weather, where everything soon soaked. My back was wet on the second day in the cave even with closed cell foam, bivvy bag and a thermarest between the bag and the snow but i still stayed warm and comfortable, unlike my team-mates who were very cold and wet in their -12 bags. When the sun did finally show the bag dried quickly and was extremely comfortable for the remainder of the trip.

***** Lightweight
***** Complete... comes with storage bag, plus compression sack. |
| *** length... in extreme cold where the bag doubles as a dressing room/closet, you'll need the "long" bag. |
| none, this is the BEST cold weather bag! |
