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.

Jumping Into Large Swimbaits Without Breaking the Bank
  My first experience throwing large swimbaits was years ago, not fishing for bass but monster pike in a world-renowned trout stream. A few months before a family trip to the Bighorn River in Fort Smith, Mont., my little brother had gifted me a 10-inch glide bait for Christmas. When we arrived at the river for a week of fly fishing,...
Just-Right Bagginess: Weatherproof L1 Premium Goods Axial Snowboard Pants Review
  Baggy is in — but not all snowboarders want the baggiest end of the spectrum. Fortunately, the L1 Premium Goods Axial Pants serve up just enough swag while still being technical, functional, and having a slightly articulated fit.   Back in 2022, the brand L1 launched a looser-fitting, genderless collection of outerwear, including the Axial pants and jacket. After seeing several...
Can You Build a Better Rubber Boot?
  Mud season. Dealing with spring snowmelt, rain, mud, and muck is what brings the American Northeast, Southeast, and Northwest—and most places in between—together. If you live outside of an urban center and spend your time outdoors, odds are you own a pair of boots for mud season. Rubber boots are ubiquitous where I live in Bozeman, Montana. Knee-high rubber boots...
Premium Waterproof Leather: Universal Coverado Car Seat Covers Review
  These universal car seat covers spread over the front and rear seats for a full interior makeover that looks sharp and holds up over time. From the moment they slid out of the box, it was clear I was in for something different with the Coverado Leather Seat Covers.   For lumbar support, these quilted seat covers have six layers of...
Coast to Coast on Two Wheels
  When a Reddit thread surfaced about a man who went on a solo cross-country e-bike tour, two questions demanded answers: Who was this adventurer, and what kind of bike did they use? After all, while reliable e-bikes have proliferated on urban commutes and mountain bike trails, only the best can successfully endure a grueling 5,500-mile journey from coast to coast....
I Tried 5 Creatine Recipes. Here Are the Few I’d Recommend.
  If you search for creatine recipes on social media, you’ll find many creators adding it to everything from smoothies to oatmeal bowls. Even though experts and influencers tout its benefits in their videos, I avoided using it because Ive always been a bit skeptical of supplements. Before adding it to my diet, I had tons of questions that needed answers....

USA-Built Luxury, Solid Tool Watch Specs: Jack Mason Pursuit Pilot Review
  There are a handful of meaningful differentiators in the world of mechanical wristwatches. One of the most important is power reserve, or how long a watch can run without being worn or wound. The boutique brand Jack Mason just launched its Pursuit Pilot with a power reserve of 68 hours in a watch that costs less than $1,500.   Oh, and...
Refillable Propane Brand Expands at REI, National Parks
  The dark green color of many propane tanks might suggest theyre environmentally friendly — but theyre actually a strain on park resources.   Every year, millions of propane tanks are abandoned at campsites or tossed in a landfill because proper disposal is both costly and dangerous. But its now easier than ever for many campers and hikers to opt for refillable...
