Im looking for a good zero degree down sleeping bag. The stone glacier chilkoot seems to be my number one choice. Anyone have any other suggestions for a zero degree bag that is sub 3 pounds
Recently upgraded to a Katabatic Quilt and must say had my doubts going into my first trip. After using in base camp and on an overnighter in the backcountry, I’d highly recommend giving them a try!! Based on my experience, my 22F Alsek felt more like a 10F mummy bag.
I can’t even believe I’m looking at spending this much on a sleeping bag. But now that I am looking I really like the feathered friends and western mountaineering also. But what makes them worth $200-$350 more than the stone glacier? I really don’t know much beyond temperature rating and weight when comparing these bags. And they all should fit me great I’m only 5’6”
I just bought a 0° Enlightened Equip 3/4 zip w/closed foot box. I haven't had a chance to get it in cold temps yet, will in a few weeks, but I have been impressed with the weight, loft, and comfort.
I'm a believer in Western Mountaineering, and my apache MF has retained its loft incredibly well. I was, however, VERY impressed with a friends Chilkoot simply because of the hydrophobic down they use.
