Great for hiking Kilimanjaro
I used this bag to climb Marangu Route of Kilimanjaro in September and it kept me warm all the nights while others around me were freezing. I love how light it is to pack too!

The best sleeping bag
Super light and comfortable.

Swallow YF 20
It’s pretty lightweight and very warm. No issues with warmth. Pulled the trigger on getting a compression sack though for the bag. The stuff sack that comes with isn’t bad but just doesn’t do it for me. Hopefully I can make it just a tad bit smaller overall with the compression sack. It’s a very nice sleeping bag.

Impressed so Far
I have yet to get this bag out into the backcountry, but on a drive across the country recently I used it while sleeping at a rest area. The temperature in the car got down to about 30 degrees and I was plenty warm. It seems like this bag will be keeping me warm in the future at temperatures even lower than that! I can't overstate the quality and feel of this bag: simply spectacular.

A very good bag. I wanted light and warm. The bag is light, warm and very well built.
