I am actually taking a wilderness training couse and we had an excursion to Joshua Tree. The temperature probably reached as low as 30 degrees and I can honestly say I was very toasty. I used a four season tent which helped a great deal as well. The draw strings near your face are very handy to minimize the amount of air exposure. Keep in mind this is a mummy style bag so if you don't like to feel constricted, this isn't the bag for you. I ordered the large bag so that I could fit my boots at the bottom. I am 6' and this bag was the perfect size. My only concern is for when I take it backpacking as it is rather bulky. The weight for a winter bag is quite good at 3 and half pounds. Also, as a synthetic fill bag, it can be dried out much easier than down in the event that it gets wet.

I actually purchased this for an emergency bag. I haven't actually used it outside to test it yet, but I am still impressed with how lightweight it actually is, and how easily and quickly I can return it back into a small roll and slip it into its carrying bag. I am approx. 5'7" tall and between a size 16 and 18, and I fit into this bag comfortably and can zip myself into it without much trouble. Even the hood has pulls so that you can have just your nose and mouth exposed if you need to. When I try it out in the cold weather, I'll amend this review with the update.
