Description

  Roomy, warm and packed with features; 20° F

  Roomy, warm, and packed with features, Western Mountaineering's AlpinLite is a wider version of the ever-popular UltraLite. If your summer bike tour or backpacking trip is going to take you through different climates, the AlpinLite is the way to go; its continuous baffles allow you to shift the down on top of you in cold temps, or underneath you when the weather warms up. With a generous 64 inch shoulder girth and 5 inches of high-lofting 850+ down, this comfortable bag is good to 20° F. The full down collar helps to seal in heat around your neck without adding excess bulk, and the full length draft tube seals in heat along the zipper. The total weight of this very compressible bag is right around 2 lbs, so you can take the AlpinLite anywhere.

  Like all of Western Mountaineering's bags, this 20 degree sleeping bag 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.

  Winner of Backpacker Magazine's Editor's Choice Award 2014

Footprint sold separately.

Avalanches Caught 117 People in Colorado in 2024. Why Did Only Two Die?
  Back in December 2023, Colorado was mired with a miserable snowpack. The ski resorts were barely open and a thin layer of rotten snow blanketed the surface of the alpine. Our editors speculated that once the storm door began to open and coverage improved, the pent-up demand in the country’s most dangerous state for avalanches would lead to a high number...
Discover the Best of Asheville with Advice from Local Experts
  Over the past two decades, Asheville’s reputation as one of the country’s premier adventure hubs has been built on its unique combination of terrain and culture.

Pit Vipers Exciters: Thru-Hiker Tested, Hurricane Approved
  Cycling, rock climbing, labwork, construction, running, and thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail: My Pit Vipers Exciters have done it all. After ditching everyday glasses for contacts, I discovered the Exciters more than 6 years ago. I needed sunglasses to keep me safe from UV (and potentially flying objects).   After several years of testing different shades, Im convinced the Pit Viper Exciters...
How Everest Was Turned into an Industry
  When Will Cockrell told me he was writing a book about Mount Everest, he couldn’t see the roll of my eyes. But he’s perceptive enough to have picked up on my lukewarm commitment to being interviewed, and so I felt a need to explain that there are already quite a few Everest books out there. My coffee table is in...

The Best Sleeping Bags for Camping in Comfort
  As far as we’re concerned, camping near your car is all about comfort—save the rehydrated meals and paper-thin foam sleeping bags for the backcountry. And if there’s any part of your kit you shouldn’t cut corners with, it’s your bedding. The scenery always looks that much nicer after a good night of sleep.   The good news about shopping for sleeping...
Streamlined and Refined: Holosun HE508T-GR X2 Review
  Red dots and reflex sights provide a host of advantages for turkey guns, and I would argue that improved accuracy tops the list. Sure, running a traditional bead gives you peace of mind, and you don’t have to worry about a battery dying. It’s as simple as point and shoot, right?   But what if your gun’s point of impact isn’t...
