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.

Base Model Provides Playful Fun: 2025 Porsche Macan Electric Review
  With the drive mode dial turned to sport, I bury the accelerator. A futuristic ascending digital tone emanates as the Macan Electric shoves me to the seatback and speeds quickly approach triple digits. The tone comes courtesy of a $510 Porsche electric sport sound option. But the pull comes standard from the rear-mounted electric motor. Welcome to the future.   All...

The Oddly Comforting Void of a Sensory Deprivation Tank
  When I invited my friend Sarah to join me in trying sensory deprivation tanks, as invented in 1954 by a so-called “consciousness researcher” named John C. Lilly, I saw a flash of understanding on her big-eyed face. She pulled up, on her phone, a vintage movie poster with the words: UNWITTINGLY, HE TRAINED A DOLPHIN TO KILL THE PRESIDENT OF...
African Surfing and the Ocean as a Source of Joy, with Professor Kevin Dawson
  The blissed out, swell chasing surfer with a single-minded focus on the next great ride is a pervasive outdoorsy archetype that’s completely at odds with the lived experience of many surfers. Take historian Kevin Dawon, a professor at UC Merced, for whom surfing serves as his connection to a rich tradition of African aquatic culture. Dawson is credited with resurfacing...

Warmth on a Budget: Outdoor Research Snowcrew Insulated Women’s Snow Pants Review
  There are certain kinds of womens ski pants that you reach for again and again, and not because theyre the flashiest or most high-tech. Rather, you do it because the design nails the basics in a way that works for the majority of your days on snow. That’s the case with the Outdoor Research Snowcrew insulated ski pants for women....
These Hiking Sandals Take Minimalist to the Max: Bedrock Cairn Evo 3D Pro Review
  I’m no stranger to hiking in adventure sandals. If it’s warmer than 60 degrees, you can be reasonably sure I’ll be hiking, kayaking, and yes, even trail running, in open-toe shoes.   But not all sandals, not even those built for adventure, are created equal. Some are heavy and clunky (looking at you, Chaco). Others don’t feature secure enough straps or...
The Best Women’s Hunting Pants of 2025
  Womens hunting pants have to be comfortable while offering protection.They need to move with you while traversing rugged terrain, keep you warm when the conditions get frosty, and ward off water when the clouds open up. During early-season hunts, I require a pant that keeps me both cool and protected, a big ask from a piece of clothing.   You dont...
