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.

From Flights to Campsites, These Slippers Go Anywhere: The North Face ThermoBall Traction Bootie Review
  They weren’t my most glamorous airport outfit choice, but I didn’t care; I was warm. I wore The North Face ThermoBall Traction Booties on winter flights from Gunnison, Colo., to Bozeman, Mont. Maybe not the most traditional way to use booties, but it worked. While everyone else fidgeted in stiff leather boots or struggled to put shoes back on after...

Park-Ready All-Rounder: Armada ARV 100 All-Mountain Skis Review
  My first (and wrong) impression of the Armada ARV 100 all-mountain skis was: “Wow, these skis suck.” Turns out, I hadn’t figured out where and how to ski them. I made that mistake, so you dont have to.   Through trial and error, I discovered that the ARV 100 is a freestyle design with all-mountain capabilities. The ARV 100s excel for new...

Igloo Recool Review: A $10 Biodegradable Cooler Worth Trusting
  I wasnt convinced when the Igloo Recool first showed up. At a glance, the recycled tree pulp walls looked flimsier than my daughters cardboard fort upstairs. But then, I gave it a shot — and quickly changed my tune.   Ive driven it up Richmond Ridge above Aspen in our Jeep Wrangler, hauled it around for day hikes, and stashed it...

Blizzard Hits Himalaya: At Least One Dead on Mera Peak, Tibetan Tourists Stranded Near Everest

It caused serious disruptions on roads, and hundreds of tourists are still stranded on the Tibetan side of Everest.
