Apache GWS
$665.00 - $710.00
Description

  15 degrees of windproof, water-resistant boundary-pushing; narrow cut

  The Western Mountaineering Apache GWS is built with attitude! This windproof, highly water-resistant and breathable 15° F bag won't take no for an answer as it pushes the bounds of what a late-summer/early-fall bag can do. A full 3-dimensionally sewn down-filled collar seals in heat when the weather takes a turn for the worse. The slim, heat-efficient cut lets you warm up the bag quickly and makes for a light, compressible package. 19 oz. of high lofting down pumps up a durable 6" of loft. The Apache GWS is a very efficient package that is built like a pint-sized winter bag. At a total weight of around 2 lbs 6 oz, you'll be amazed just how much cold these bags will tame.

  Like all of Western Mountaineering's bags, the Apache GWS is made by hand in San Jose, California. Their down is sourced from free-range mother geese who are never live-plucked or force-fed.

Footprint sold separately.

A Bigger, Better AllTrails Debuts ‘Peak’ Tier and 6 New Features
  Smartphones dont make most lists for hikings Ten Essentials. Maybe thats because they are so deeply embedded in our daily routine that nobody has to remember to pack them. The reality is that smartphone (and smartwatch) activity apps are here to stay, and the first choice for many. At the summit of these hiking apps stands AllTrails. Real-time navigation on...
Rugged Watch With Detroit Soul: Shinola Duck Watch Review
  It was 2:30 a.m., still a couple of hours until my alarm would wake me from my slumber to chase turkeys in the Colorado spring hunt. Annoyed, I sat up and started whacking the ceiling to clear the snow and keep a collapse at bay. But I glanced again at the watch, impressed by the lume, the only thing I...
YETI Adds All-Weather Muscle to a Daypack: Introducing the Cayo
  We carry backpacks to keep things within reach, be it a laptop, a change of clothes, or water and snacks. But not all packs are comfortable to carry, and fewer still can claim to protect your belongings from rain, sleet, splashes, and general wetness.   Enter the YETI Cayo Backpack. It is a weather-resistant, rugged-bodied pack for carrying daily essentials and/or...
BougeRV Rover2000 Review: Power Station Shines With Semi-Solid-State Tech, Serious Solar Input
  We were near the top of our first rocky pass on a weeklong overlanding trip through the San Juan mountains when it dawned on us: We’d entrusted our lives, or at least our ice cream and margaritas, to a magic box that, along with solar panels and an electric cooler, converts energy from a distant flaming ball of hydrogen into...
Latest Strava Updates Use AI to Recommend Routes, Level Leaderboards, and More
  The weekend comes, and theres an urge to shake up your routine. Its time to take a long run or ride to new places. That often takes tinkering on a map and can eat into riding time if you havent planned ahead.   Then comes the urge to just wing it, which can be fun —unless you end up riding down...
Marathon Mode: Lighter, Brighter Suunto Run Watch Adds Functions for Runners
  Runners who find sports watches to be overwhelming or cluttered now have a pared-down option. By taking a run-first approach, the Suunto Run ($250) eliminates some data bells and whistles to concentrate on training, racing, and recovery. This streamlined approach also reduces the watchs heft and price.      Runners will appreciate the sleek design and weight of 36 g; (photo/Suunto)...
Crisp and Clear for $100: Celestron Outland X 10×42 Binoculars Review
  As a kid, my parents encouraged me to use my imagination and explore the countryside. Everything around me was farmland, filled with barns attached to rolling hills that popped out of fields that stopped at the horizon. After breakfast, I would get on my bike with my backpack filled with everything I needed to explore for the day. My mom...
The Ultimate Outdoors Companion Just Got Brighter: Garmin Instinct 3 AMOLED Watch Review
  Let me tell you now, before the nitty-gritty, there are many who assume the Garmin Instinct 3 AMOLED is something it is not. It is not just a cheaper version of Garmin’s Fenix smartwatch — that watch is designed for your Indiana Jones heading on expeditions. The Instinct line is designed for outdoor enthusiasts who love hiking and backpacking on...
Gorgeous Sound & Damn Near Everything-Proof: Turtlebox Ranger Review
  The Turtlebox Ranger makes no sense to me. As a lifelong musician, I always thought it was self-evident that high-quality audio means sensitive equipment. Improvements to durability must inevitably come at the cost of aural clarity — or so I believed.   My experience with the Ranger blows those assumptions out of the water. This speaker shakes off as quickly as...
‘Star Wars’-Inspired Airbike Prototype Channels Childhood Dreams With 124mph Jet System
  Its no coincidence that the first video ad for the Volonaut Airbike was published just before May 4, a.k.a. Star Wars Day. The videos aesthetic will be immediately familiar to anyone with even a passing familiarity with the science-fiction franchise. Since the first film debuted in 1977, hover bikes speeding across the Tatooine desert have captivated the imaginations of fans...
Midnight Mariner Review: Luminox’s ‘Most Luminous’ Watch Is Clean, Classy Wrist Candy
  A 1,000-horsepower turbocharged V6 screamed past and faded away as quickly as it had approached. The unseen Formula 1 machine was turning hot laps ahead of qualifying inside the Miami International Autodrome. Meanwhile, I navigated a security checkpoint and began the upstream swim through a river of Ferrari red, McLaren papaya orange, and dark blue Red Bull outfits.   I, a...
This Indiana Jones Satchel Is the Perfect Commuter Bag: Woods Monkey Transit Bag Review
  Sitting in the dark theater with the now-famous theme music filling the air, the first time I saw Indy’s satchel, I knew I had to have one. Being 9 years old when Raiders of the Lost Ark came out, sourcing such a bag was impossible. Mom had a few old purses, though, which is one of those memories that makes...
