dbb Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 Anyone use the Marmot Atom sleeping bag? They call it a 40 deg bag with the regular height clocking in at 1 lb. Finally a 1 lb bag in the mummy style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 sounds like an ideal cascades summer bag... I wish I had the $$$. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hydroman Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 (edited) Looks like a nice bag (but they don't list fill weight). Though a 1 lb mummy bag has been around for quite a few years. WM Highlight 35 degree. They are both sewn through designs. I've been using the Highlight for a few summers now with great success. Good into the 20's for me in combo with the 10 ounce WM Flight Jacket. http://www.westernmountaineering.com/index.cfm?section=Products&page=Sleeping%20Bags&cat=ExtremeLite%20Series Edited January 18, 2007 by hydroman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericb Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 I've got the WM bag as well and like it....my only complaint is I have broad shoulders, and it's very snug. Montbell has a stretch down hugger line that looks to be a bit heavier at equivalent ratings, but I think their rating system is based on the comfort rating vs. extreme that some are. I have a light synthetic bag in this line, and the stretch makes it more comfortable than my WM. Last I checked Jim Nelson had a decent selection of both down and synthetic at his shop.

catbirdseat Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 I have a Marmot Arroyo rated at 35 degrees. It has baffle construction and weighs 1 lb, 11 oz. I've been down to 20 degrees with it and it's chilly, but nice and warm at 35 degrees. The only way to get down to 1 lb is sewn through construction. It's good enough for a 40 degree bag.
