Voted 5/5 | The best bag I have owned. Light weight and easily compressible, this bag is great for mountaineering and winter backpacking. The pocket near the collar will hold a small alarm clock right next to your head so you are sure to hear it. Very well made relative to other bags I have used and not unduly expensive. | | Posted Aug 6, 2002 11:10 am |

Voted 5/5 | This is a great bag, and very warm for its weight. As you might expect from a synthetic, it does a good job of retaining warmth even when wet. Unless snow is forecast, I sleep under the stars, and I haven't been cold in this bag yet even when temperatures have dipped well below freezing.
The only minor annoyance I have with it is that the inner lining tends to catch in the zipper unless I'm very careful. Untangling this so as to unzip the bag can make it frustrating trying to get up and out in the mornings. | | Posted May 23, 2003 12:38 pm |

Voted 5/5 | This bag has a great weight and stuff size for the warmth. The loft of Polarguard 3D makes for very comfortable nights without worrying about getting wet. I haven't used this bag in any REALLY cold temperatures but I have slept in my boxers on nights when friends in 30 degree bags have stayed fully clothed. The alarm/watch holding feature is pretty cool. The Snowshoe comes with a compression stuff sack that I found necessary to make it fit into the lower compartment of my basic Lowe Alpine Framepack (very small). | | Posted Mar 28, 2005 10:17 am |
