Details
Weighing in at 2lb 11oz (long) with 800-fill down, the Big Agnes Pomer Hoit 0-Degree Down Sleeping Bag is ideal for lightweight alpine climbing and winter camping. By taking out the insulation on the bottom of the bag, which becomes useless when compressed, Big Agnes significantly dropped the weight of this winter bag. A sleeve on the bottom of the Pomer Hoit holds a Big Agnes mummy-shaped pad (not included). This system efficiently uses every ounce of insulation to keep you toasty at a winter camp and keeps your pad under you no matter how much you move at night. Stuff your jacket into the Pomer Hoits integrated pillow sleeve, and get the best nights sleep youve ever had in the outdoors.

Winter Sleeping Bags Checklist
 |
Insulation Type? For winter
camping, nothing is better than high-quality goose down. It's warmer
and less bulky. Yes, synthetic bags are ok (and less expensive),
but for wintner camping...goose down rules. |
|
Temperature Rating? Get
a bag rated to -40 degrees. Remember, just because a bag is rated
to -40, doesn't mean it will keep you warm at that temperature. Always
be safe and "add 10 to 20" degrees onto the temperature rating of
a sleeping bag. |
|
Don't Forget the Sleeping Pad! A
winter sleeping bag is useless without a thick sleeping
pad. So,
if you don't already have a sleeping pad designed for winter, be
sure to get one. Remember, sleeping pads are designed for BOTH warmth
and comfort! |
|
Don't Jerry-Rig a Three Season Bag
for Winter Use. It's not really possible to "jerry rig"
a three season bag to make it suitable for winter use. Many good
three-season bags keep you warmer when you sleep without clothing.
About the best you can do to "winterize" a three-season bag is
to insert a sleeping bag liner. But it's still a sorry substitute
for a quality four-season bag. |
