I used this bag in the Gobi and it worked well. It is lightweight, but has a good temperature range which was definitely needed as it got very cold on some nights (Posted on 14/09/2011)

Did the job well. Could be used as a pull over for warmer nights and was definitley needed as a full wrap on night 2 of the Gobi March 2011 when temps dropped. (Posted on 21/07/2011)

Very soft and comfy. But I woke up the night when the temperature dropped down to 6C shivering in it. And on the final days of the Gobi March, when the temperature soared, it was too hot for me. (Posted on 21/07/2011)

Marmot makes fantastic, top-class sleeping bags. They just can't be beaten. Goose down is the way to go - they are super light and keeps you toasty warm. It was very cold the first 2 nights at the Gobi March 2010 but this bag saved the day. I was wearing a jacket inside the bag at first but then realized it was much better to go without it. Wear a very thin base layer or nothing at all and you'll find that the bag will keep you warm throughout the night. Put the bag in a compression bag and it packs down to the size of two grapefruit!

Lightweight, comfortable, and warm - plus it packs down to nothing. I used this bag in the Atacama Crossing 2010 and couldn't have been happier. I was much warmer and slept much sounder than I did in the Gobi March 2010 (when I used a synthetic Vaude bag).

Also this bag allows you to bring less warm clothing for laying at night because the down insulation actually works better when you have less clothes on (it traps your body heat better this way). So enjoy a comfortable, warm night in your boxers, briefs, or knickers (your choice). (Posted on 30/03/2010)
