[pct-l] Feathered Friends

[Jim Keener ( J J )]

Hi Colin,

I carried a near-custom FF bag with an eVent shell for 1,000 miles in 2004. Very well made. Rated 20 degrees, and it kept me warm. My single complaint about the bag was the cut of the head opening - straight across. I much prefer the rounded openings of Western Mountaineering and Marmot bags. The straight opening let in cold air no matter how tightly I cinched it.
