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.

Costa Sunglasses Are Wildly on Sale for Black Friday
  You know what they say: Good shades aint cheap. I was a gas station sunglass wearer for most of my life until I actually had a nice pair of sunglasses.

BeerJunkie 2-for-1: Dortmunder Gold Lager & Gunner’s Daughter Milk Stout Review

Cool, Capable, Affordable: 2024 Triumph Scrambler 400 X Review
  The term “scrambler” doesn’t mean much these days. Unlike the scramblers of old, which were street bikes converted for off-road use, today’s scramblers are typically just restyled versions of existing models with little to no meaningful improvements made for off-road riding.   Pretty much every major manufacturer has done this in one form or another, from BMW’s RnineT Scrambler to Honda’s...

What Does It Take to Ski 3 Million Vertical Feet? We Asked Noah Dines.
  When skier Noah Dines answered my phone call in late November, he was skinning up a 400-vertical foot stretch of artificial snow at Waterville Valley Resort in central New Hampshire. Anyone who skis uphill at a resort knows the activity is pretty uninspiring, akin to running on a treadmill, but Dines didnt care—he was chasing a record. If you caught...

Our Editors Picked the Best Lip Balms for Dry, Chapped Lips
  If youre anything like we are, you have a dozen different lip balms stashed throughout your house in coat pockets, backpacks, tote bags, and bathroom drawers. There are probably a few in your car, too, melting in cupholders or tucked into the console. Not all these lip products are created equal: some leave a weird white cast, and others taste...
Everest’s Hornbein Couloir Is the Greatest Line Never Skied
  Within the tight knit community of ski mountaineers, a handful of descents stand alone in terms of sheer difficulty. In 1980, Frenchman Jean-Marc Boivin became the first person to ski down the Matterhorns treacherous east face. In 1995, Canadians Ptor Spriceniek and Troy Jungen pulled a coup on the north face of British Columbias 12,972-foot Mount Robson. And in 2012, Swedens Andreas...

Durston Customers Turn Brand Loyalty Into Cult-Like Devotion
  Author’s note: I do not mean to minimize the negative effects that actual cults have had on many people. Please take the following with the levity with which it was penned.   “I don’t know what you mean by “cult,” just because I own 3 Durston tents and am saving for another …”   — Rob Rice, posted on the Durston Gearheads...
