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.

Sunglasses for Retro Ski Vibes: Vallon Ski Aviators Review
  Skiing in sunglasses, helmeted or not, is a little spicy. Sure, sunglasses can handle most visual needs while skiing on a nice, temperate day. But the second it gets windy, snowy, or even super bright, sunglasses tend to lose some luster. The cool factor falls fast if you cant see where youre going.   But while ski goggles are king, theres...
The Single-Quiver Motorcycle Jacket: REV’IT! Tornado 4 H20 Review
  While riding in the spring and summer, I learned how innovative and versatile a single jacket could be with the REV’IT! Tornado 4 H20. The brand combined mesh with CE Level 2 armor in the shoulder and elbow — boosting a AA rating for slide protection — so bombing down the highway at 60mph on a 90-degree July afternoon felt...
6 Everyday Habits That Might Be Sabotaging Your Pelvic Floor Health
  You and every other human have a group of muscles at the bottom of the pelvis that you use for the most basic everyday functions—to walk, lift things, exercise, pee, poop, have sex, and, for some, bring life into the world. Those are pretty critical functions for a part of the body you rarely concern yourself with…until you encounter pelvic...
Ineos Grenadier Goes Upmarket: 1924 Edition, Arcane Works Detour, and Portal Axles
  Luxury and off-road capability don’t usually mix without compromise. More often than not, when a brand decides to elevate a product with premium materials and bespoke craftsmanship, function takes a back seat. But Ineos seems determined to do things differently.   Its Grenadier isn’t just another overbuilt SUV designed to look the part — it’s a serious off-road machine, engineered with...
I Tried Sleepmaxxing for a Month to See If It Would Improve My Sleep
  There’s this old Dunkin Donuts commercial where an alarm buzzes at an ungodly hour of the morning. A man opens his eyes and says, “Time to make the donuts,” before dragging himself out of bed and to work in a haze. Those 30 seconds perfectly encapsulate how I feel most days—wake up groggy, work all day, fall into bed for...

Texas DOGE Member Files Bill to Abolish Parks & Wildlife
  Earlier this month, Texas lawmakers established their own version of President Trumps Department of Governmental Efficiency (DOGE). Trump created the agency to shrink the federal government and put Elon Musk in charge of the cost-cutting.   That has led to the gutting of many federal agencies — including the ones that manage public lands.   Now, one of the Texas lawmakers placed...
Alpaca Fiber-Insulated Parka Rivals Down: PAKA Apu Review
  It was dumping snow, and I was halfway to the resort when I realized Id forgotten my ski shell. I had two options: Turn around and drive home to grab it and miss another hour of powder skiing, or I could use the PAKA Apu Parka that I had stashed in the trunk with my après clothes. It wasnt necessarily...
Canada Imposes 25% Retaliatory Tariff on U.S. Fishing Products
  Canada has fired back at recent U.S. trade actions by imposing a steep 25% retaliatory tariff on American fishing rods, nets, hooks, lines, and other tackle, effective as of March 13, 2025.   This latest development comes as trade tensions continue to escalate following the Trump administrations implementation of a 25% tariff on aluminum imports from Canada, Mexico, and China. These...

How Wolves Became Yellowstone’s $82 Million Tourist Attraction
  On January 11, 1995, approximately 17,000 elk bedded down in Yellowstone National Park. When they woke up a few hours later, a new scent was in the icy air: wolves. It had been 69 years since the last Canis lupus roamed the world’s first national park. As a result of hunting, government-sponsored eradication programs, and human expansion, wolves were all but...
