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.

The Ultimate Driving Machine Goes Off-Road: 2025 BMW X5 xOffroad Package Review
  BMW has never really been about off-roading.

The Best Men’s Wool Sweaters of 2024
  We used to associate wool sweaters with being trapped in itchy, sweaty, bulky hotboxes that we had to endure until our parents finally let us take them off. In the years since, weaving techniques and treatments have turned these wearable saunas into soft, breathable, premium garments.   Most wool varieties come from sheep (especially the lauded merino), but others come from...
Black Friday Deals: Invest in a Sleeping Bag You Can Use for Decades
  I bought my first high-quality down sleeping bag in the late 1990s while working as a salesperson at Midwest Mountaineering in Minneapolis. That sleeping bag, a Marmot Pinnacle with 600-fill down, took me nearly 6 months to save for, even with a substantial discount.   Nearly 30 years since, do I regret the investment? Hell, no!

Can Travel Make You Live Longer? These Scientists Think So. 
  If it weren’t for travel, Margie Goldsmith, age 80, says she would have died at least three times by now. Ten years ago, the globe-trotting author and travel writer endured a risky surgery for pancreatic cancer. Two years later, the cancer returned. A few years after that, Goldsmith was diagnosed with lung cancer. She survived it all, she is sure,...
