HighLite
$405.00 - $425.00
Description

　　The pinnacle of ultralight efficiency; 35° F

　　Western Mountaineering's HighLite is designed to be the lightest, most compressible bag you can find. Everything about this bag is constructed with weight in mind, from its 0.9-oz ExtremeLite™ fabric to the half-length zipper. A popular choice among thru-hikers and ultralight fanatics, the HighLite's efficient narrow mummy cut means that the bag heats up faster and more heat is retained compared to wider sleeping bags. At only 16 ounces, no other bag is as light, as warm, as well-made or as good-looking as the HighLite.

　　Like all of Western Mountaineering's bags, the HighLite 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.

What Happens When Yosemite SAR Can’t Hire Rescuers?

World’s Hardest Rock Climb? Six New Moves Create Baffling Route
　　Italys Excalibur route begins by stepping off a boulder onto the wall. Italian climber Stefano Ghisolfi started investigating the potential moves below the top of the boulder, which would produce a direct start. 　　Ghisolfi believes this low start is harder than any move on Excalibur, and he grades this section V14. This V14 would link to a V13, then into...

　　Snow swirled all around Denver, causing road closures, flight delays, and general travel chaos as brands and journalists descended upon the Mile High City for this years Outdoor Market Alliance (OMA) winter media show.

Luxury Home on Wheels Tackles Iconic Moab 4×4 Trails: TruckHouse R&D Mission
　　Fifteen years ago, almost to the week, I first met Dave Harriton and Dave Yegge — DH and DY, as they’re known in shorthand. Harriton, the founder of American Expedition Vehicles (AEV), and Yegge, the engineer who ensures that all AEV vehicles are built to world-class standards. Back then, we were in Moab filming an episode for the now-shuttered Speed...
Base Truck, Big Upgrades: 2025 Toyota Tundra SR5 TRD Rally Package Review
　　Barreling through a washboard rough patch of dirt road, the Tundra easily glides over the bumps and provides a cushy ride. But this isn’t a TRD Pro. In fact, the SR5 trim ranks just one above the base SR. It offers spartan amounts of luxury and nearly no off-road equipment. 　　Yet, courtesy of the $8,660 TRD Rally Package, I’m rolling...
I Ran Without a Watch for a Month. It Completely Changed My Running.
　　The first training runs I ever did were bare-wristed. 　　I was in sixth grade, at my middle school’s cross-country practice. Our coach told us to run a lap around the school, maybe three-quarters of a mile. I sauntered around with my friends, unencumbered by any pressure to perform, as our coach smoked a cigarette in the parking lot. Eventually, we...
Climb Confidently, Comfortably: Scarpa Drago XT Rock Shoe Review
　　Given that GearJunkie already crowned the Scarpa Drago the best climbing shoe for steep routes and boulders, it was a surprise when the Drago XT showed up in the mail. I couldnt see how Scarpa could improve such a beloved, high-performing shoe, or why it would introduce another Drago model that could sully the line. 　　So, I put myself on...
