Description

  One of the lightest fully-baffled sleeping bags in the world; 34° F

  The Western Mountaineering FlyLite is one of the lightest fully-baffled sleeping bags in the world, built with a balanced 10-denier fabric, a 36-inch #3 coil zipper with insulated draft tube and an insulated top collar. More importantly, the total weight of this bag is a mere 14 ounces! This version has a slightly longer zipper and more down fill than the limited-edition FlyLite.

  Compressing down to almost the size of a standard water bottle, the FlyLite is a perfect choice for fast packers, adventure racing enthusiasts, bikepackers, or anyone looking for the lightest possible bag in which they can still get a full night’s sleep.

  Like all Western Mountaineering bags, the FlyLite 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.

Scaling its bulging face felt like climbing on a giant basketball, the world falling away into empty space on all sides....

The Best of Yellowstone
  It’s often said that the national parks are America’s best idea. No argument here. And it all started with designating Yellowstone National Park, a particular stroke of genius. This remarkable landscape of hot springs, geysers, and incredible wildlife became the country’s first national park in 1872, starting a revolution in protecting special landscapes in the United States and around the...
A Rescue Report from Mount Washington Pulls No Punches
  I read a lot of search and rescue reports.   These brief accounts, often published on Facebook or on government agency websites, are windows into dramatic lifesaving missions that sometimes involve helicopters and dozens of personnel.

The Size Disadvantage
  Look around the start line of an endurance race and you don’t see many tall competitors. Look on the podium, and you never see any. Why is that? Why don’t tall people win endurance races?

There Are New Rules for Pooping on Mount Everest
  Poop it out, pack it down.   Thats the new directive for climbers on Mount Everest this year.
