Sold Western Mountaineering Dakota -5F Down Sleeping Bag

[Blue Skunk]

Continuing to pare down the gear closet. The Dakota was discontinued by WM probably 10 years ago. This is the nicest bag I've ever used, but just does not fit me well. I'd recommend this for a more slim/slender build. WM Specs 61/52/38. The bag is rated at -5F. I believe the model was replaced by the Lynx. The puffy factor is off the charts and the lining is killer. The plushest bag I've ever been in. It's only been used a few times and in Excellent like new condition. Size Long. WM Storage Bag and Stuff Sacks included. $575 Shipped

The Dakota is a -5°, 750 fill power Gore Windstopper sack and is essentially an overfilled Antelope that was replaced by the lighter 850+ fill power Antelope and retailed for $500 before being discontinued. I own both of these, and this is an EXCELLENT bag to own, fits my wife like a glove. GLWS.

Bag Description from Western Mountaineering:

The sun is bright, the air is warm. Spring skiing is the best of both seasons, and that corn snow is great for carving tele's. But when the sun goes down it often takes the spring with it. That's why you're using Western Mountaineering's Dakota Super Microfiber in MicroLite XP™. This -5° bag weighs only 2 lbs. 13 oz. and has a shoulder girth of 60". It comes equipped with their 3-Dimensional MicroLite XP™ down filled collar. The V-Block Side Baffle insures perfect down distribution. And the well filled draft tube has a stiffening tape that prevents snags. This efficient bag with 7 1/2" of loft is a bombshell of warmth! Western Mountaineering Dakota SMF Features: 6" Spacing/V-Block Side Baffle 60"/38" Shoulder/Foot Girth Full Down Collar 7 1/2" Loft, -5° F 30 oz. Down Fill 2 lbs. 13 oz.
