Lynx GWS
$915.00 - $975.00
Description

  Windproof, highly water-resistant -10° winter bag.

  When getting to a backcountry bowl with enough energy to enjoy the fresh powder, being fast and going light is crucial. That's why the Western Mountaineering Lynx GWS is a top-notch choice for backcountry winter adventures. This highly water-resistant powerhouse of a bag is packed with 33 oz of 850+ down, and weighs in at a mere 3 lbs. 8 oz. The efficiently cut -10° Lynx has a full 3-Dimensional down-filled collar completely made with Gore Windstopper™ fabric. The draft tube is also Gore Windstopper™ and has a stiffening tape for snag-free zipper operation. Finally, the V-Block Side Baffle ensures perfect down control so that the down stays where it's needed most.

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