Big Agnes Deep Creek 15 Degree Down Sleeping Bag with Waterproof Shell.

Saturday, April 5th, 2008


Another new sleeping bag from Big Agnes, another write-up in Backpacker Magazine. Is there any question why Mountains Plus is such a huge fan of BA? Part of the Shield Series of bags, this one offers the protection of the Pertex Endurance outer layer with the amazing insulating capacity you can only find with down. Some folks are leery of taking down bags into wet or damp climates, fearful of the bag getting wet and losing insulating power. The Deep Creek can allay those fears. Enjoy the warmth of down with the peace of mind of a waterproof cover! The Shield Series bags offer a barrier against external moisture and condensation. The SeamZero, waterproof seamless construction combined with the lightweight, breathable and waterproof Pertex Endurance fabric give you the best option for maximum insulation protection. The insulating material is 775 fill goose down, a great choice for a lightweight bag with a lot of warming capabilities. These bags are made to be used on their own, but the waterproof technology makes them a great over bag or light bivy.

Works best with Big Agnes’ wide rectangular pads. Bag weight = 2 lb 13 oz. Black/Red.

We recommend getting a Big Agnes Girdle with your new sleeping bag so you can compress it down nice and small when you pack up your gear for the trail.

Features:
Shell fabric: Pertex Endurance - wind and waterproof fabric that is ultra light and breathable
Interior lining: Soft and breathable nylon with stain resistant finish
Cotton storage sack and nylon stuff sack included
Built in pillow pockets holds a fleece or our Air Core Pillow
No-draft yoke seals around neck to keep cold air from sneaking in.
70″ YKK #8 zipper. Mate together any of our left and right zip bags with a 70″ zipper

Big Agnes Air Core

Friday, April 4th, 2008


Side sleepers rejoice! This is another recommended piece of gear by Outside Magazine’s gear buying guide. We’re not surprised, we’ve been big BA fans before any of the big national chains even jumped on board! In fact, Mountains Plus has been one of the leading independent sellers of great Big Agnes products, so we can attest to their innovations in quality outdoor products. And Air Core pads are one of our biggest sellers, which really says something.

Air Core pads are the lightest and most comfortable inflated sleeping pads in the world! These pads are so comfortable, you may end up throwing away your bed at home. Seriously, if you are a side sleeper, this pad is for you. The thick mattress allows you to sleep on your side without the pain in your hips. Gone are the days of flip-flopping through the night from one sore hip to the other.

BA developed an I-beam construction technique that is functionally superior to the typical welded-through construction of other air mats. Die cut holes in each I-beam allow air to flow freely between chambers as you move around for constant support and comfort. While Air Core pads are not considered self-inflating, users who value the added comfort and reduced size and weight of these 2.5 inches thick pads don’t seem to mind. Stuffed size of these pads is about the size of a Nalgene water bottle and they weigh only 19-25 ounces depending on length. May be left in your sleeping bag pad sleeve and deflated and stuffed into a bag stuff sack to save room in your pack. Available in rectangular or mummy shape in 48, 72 and 78 inch lengths. Stuff sack and repair kit included.
