Badger GWS
$765.00 - $815.00
Description

  Extra-wide mummy with windproof, highly water-resistant shell; 15° F.

  Don't let a little claustrophobia keep you from getting into a mummy bag; everything about the Western Mountaineering Badger GWS is built for comfort. The 15-degree Badger is a mammoth 66 inches wide at the shoulder and 41 at the foot, and this girth is kept in line with a warm down-filled collar that provides a barrier against convective heat loss and a full-length insulated draft tube along the zipper. The hood is cut large and fills around your face without having to be cinched tight. On top of all that, the Badger GWS has a highly water-resistant/breathable Gore Windstopper™ shell for extreme weather protection. This shell is the most water-resistant, windproof, and breathable fabric suitable for sleeping bags.

  Like all of Western Mountaineering's bags, the Badger GWS 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.

Lightning-Fast Lens Swap: Anon M5 Ski Goggles Review
  My touring partners and I crouched at the summit of our planned ski line, engulfed in a cloud of whipping winds and spindrift. It felt like chaos. I carefully donned insulating layers, fighting the wind’s attempt to tear them out of my hands. The anxiety was building. My Anon M5 ski goggles were the last piece.   I hastily swapped the...
Satellite Texting Is Coming to the iPhone. Do I Still Need My inReach?
  The critics were correct—of course we should have had a Garmin inReach.   Early last October, after nearly 10,000 miles of hiking together without major incident, my wife, Tina, and I became separated on the Continental Divide Trail. A snowstorm had swept through the San Juan range of southern Colorado, and we’d unknowingly taken different routes on that choose-your-own-adventure trek. For...
Are SunChips Actually Healthy? A Recovering Junk-Food Enthusiast Investigates.
  In my twenties, chips, gummy bears, and the cheesiest burritos I could make once fueled all of my runs, climbs, and camping trips. Now well into my mid-thirties and trying to set a better example for my growing toddler, I’ve spent the last two years rewriting my usual travel menu. I’ve largely replaced Skittles with real fruit and beer with...

Still a Rally Car at Heart: 2024 Subaru WRX TR Review
  The 2024 Subaru WRX TR is the hottest version of the Subaru WRX. For now, that is. Because the TR is a 1-year-only special that is biding time until an even hotter one arrives.   That doesnt mean you should wait, though, because the basics of the last remaining rally sedan are better than ever, and the Rex is still equally...
Lost Hiker Survived for 10 Days in Santa Cruz Mountains: ‘It Was an Awesome Experience’
  Lukas McClish had been lost, wandering the Santa Cruz Mountains of California for 10 days before he was rescued on June 20. When the 34-year-old hiker finally came out of the woods, he was shirtless, scruffy, and on the verge of malnutrition.

Is the Smartphone-Free Thru-Hike Dead? Some Hikers Are Bringing It Back
  For years, the smartphone has been hailed as the ultimate multipurpose backpacking tool: It’s a camera, map, GPS, diary, music player, plant identifier, book, and emergency communication device all in one.   Smartphones have become particularly ubiquitous on long trails. Thru-hiking-specific guide apps like FarOut allow hikers to access useful information like elevation profiles, weather, camping options, trail angel contact info,...

Amazfit Cheetah Pro Review: Can This Budget Fitness Watch Hack It for Endurance Use?
  But, Amazfit? I’d never even heard of the brand. Was it Amazon’s entry into the market? How would it stack up with Garmin, COROS, Suunto, and Apple? The Cheetah Pro certainly doesnt have the name recognition of those fitness watch brands, but it talked the big talk on paper — and the name sounded fast.   As it turns out, even if...
