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 Evolution of EVs Through a Nissan Leaf Lens
  The 2011 Nissan Leaf debuted with a 24kWh battery and 73 miles of range. Its steeply sloped, stumpy nose with bugeye headlights and a bulbous hatchback body offered folks an entry into the modern battery electric world from a mainstream Japanese manufacturer.   Tesla aside, many automakers took a similar approach, offering small, efficient, and limited-range electric cars. But unlike most...

What You Learn Running Toward, Rather Than Away, From a Tornado, With Pecos Hank
  Spend time outdoors, and you’ll eventually spend time in brutal, even scary weather. Dangerous winds, flash flood-inducing rain, and vision-erasing whiteouts are sometimes the cost of entry. By the same token, you’re as likely to remember the upsides to those experience—the belly laughter of relief, the rainbows after the rain, the waist deep powder—as the scary parts. Hank Schyma, aka...
Big, Bold, and Badass: WE Knife Inmate Review
  The knife industry is currently experiencing a surge. I cannot remember a time when there have been so many new knife designers launching products into the market. I expect that when the dust settles, some designers will find their stride while others fade into obscurity.   One of the new knife designers who has continued to grow in popularity is Jerad...
Cushioned Confidence for the Long Haul: Saucony Xodus Ultra 4 Women’s Trail Running Shoe
  Trail runners have plenty of cushioned options these days, but few manage to feel protective and versatile without tipping towards clunky. The Saucony Xodus Ultra 4 womens trail running shoe strikes that balance, pairing plush underfoot comfort with tacky traction and stability that can handle just about any mountain trail.   I tested the Xodus Ultra 4 for about 2 months...
Moab All Year Long: A Red Rock Destination for Every Kind of Explorer

Whether you crave epic trails through the famed sandstone arches, boogying around a folk music festival, or just a leisurely scenic drive,...
I Skied the Andes and Hiked Machu Picchu in the Same Week—It Was Way Easier Than I Thought
  Im standing at 10,000 feet, skis on my feet, sun on my face, and the Andes stretched out like a jagged white spine to the horizon. It’s July—deep summer back home in New York—but here at Valle Nevado, Chile’s most modern ski resort, it’s a bluebird powder day.

Low-Light Performance in a Compact Package: ZEISS SFL 10X50 Binocular Review
  I felt hot, sweaty, and dejected as my buddy and I sat in my raft, silently drifting downriver in the bright sun with prime hunting hours coming to a close. We had taken a long shot during Tennessees early wood duck and teal season, opting to hunt an out-of-the-way river with complex logistics and few birds in lieu of the...
