Ascent 500
$239.96 - $271.96
Description

  The Rab Ascent 500 is a versatile bag with a comfortable, wide mummy fit. Filled with 500g of 650FP duck down and with space for wearing additional layers if needed, this bag can be used in cool temperatures. Ideal for two season use and spring conditions.

  The Ascent is built with a lightweight and durable, recycled Pertex® Quantum outer fabric and recycled nylon lining. It has trapezoid shaped, boxwall baffles that stack neatly together, encouraging the hydrophobic duck down inside to loft fully and reducing the appearance of cold spots. Hand-filled in the UK, all of Rab's down bags benefit from never having had their down compressed before use, maintaining the down’s loft and warmth.

  The generous mummy fit with wide foot box provide a spacious feel for an easy night’s sleep, and the close-fitting neck baffle keeps the heat in when the temperature drops. It has a ¾ length main zip with a down filled baffle to keep out the draught.

  Practicalities are taken care of with an internal zipped stash pocket that easily fits a phone or a headlamp, a cotton storage sack, and a compression stuff sack to ensure a manageable pack size and protection on the road. Exploring with a partner or want extra space? Pick up a left and a right zipped bag and you can zip them together.

Footprint sold separately.

‘Screaming Bargain’ for Technical Performance: Columbia Titanium Platinum Peak II Women’s Ski Jacket Review
  When I pulled the new Columbia Platinum Peak II womens ski jacket out of the box, my first thought was, “This is $300?!” Yes, that’s still a lot of money. But we’re now living in an era where many ski jackets hover between $500 and $700, with some even pushing $900. In comparison, the Platinum Peak II feels like a...
The Ultimate Pants for Unpredictable Weather: KUIU Kutana Hybrid Pant Review
  As I loaded the truck in the pre-dawn darkness, I felt the all-too-familiar tapping of rain on the brim of my hat. The rain intensified, and I felt it soaking through my shirt and onto my shoulders. Great, this again, I thought as I threw two turkey decoys in the bed.   My time in the field has become more limited,...

You Now Need a Special Permit to Reach One Terminus of the Continental Divide Trail: What You Need to Know

Living With a Million-Dollar Lamborghini Revuelto Is Even Crazier Than I Thought
  It was the sound of kids chatting and laughing that got me out of bed that morning. I’m used to that, though. After all, I live in a friendly, family neighborhood. Except, this time, the kids sounded closer, like they were hanging out on my front porch.   When I pulled the curtains, I was instantly reminded of the special press...

How Condoms Make You a Better Hunter
  Youre getting lucky in the woods because of condoms. Not because they’ll keep you from making questionable life choices at elk camp (though Ive admittedly been at a few camps that were far more risky by the fire than on the ridge), but because without prophylactics, diaphragm calls as we know them probably wouldn’t exist.   That thin piece of latex...
