Marmot Atom Sleeping Bag – Light Sleeping Bag
Saturday, May 24th, 2008
This warm bag passes muster even on nights below its rating. Rarely do we find a 40°F bag that’s toasty into the mid-30s, but this ultralight, 900-fill down mummy passed that test from Washington’s Glacier Peak Wilderness to Alaska’s Revelation Mountains. And yet it packs smaller than the other three bags and weighs barely more than a pound. That’s because Marmot uses the highest quality feathers available, which translates to high loft and heat-trapping with little weight and bulk. Dimensions are comfortable for someone of average build or smaller-just right in the shoulders and waist, with a little extra thrashing room in the footbox. The Pertex Quantum shell breathes nicely while repelling condensation; the bag also features a locking zipper, draft tube, and nicely fitted hood. Only caveat: The short, 38-inch zipper saves weight, but limits venting on warm nights. Price: $249 USD (regular, 72 in.) $269 USD (long, 78-in.) Weight: 1 lb. 2 oz.
