Updated for 2013! With its high-performance, water-repellent DownTek insulation and a roomy semi-rectangular shape, the Big Agnes Lost Ranger 15 Degree sleeping bag is ideal for 3-season backpacking. The Lost Ranger 15 Degree bag is insulated with 650 fill DownTek insulation. Down insulation has long been renowned for its compressible properties and efficiency in delivering an excellent warmth-to-weight ratio. The shortcoming of down has been its susceptibility to the effects of moisture, losing much of its performance qualities when wet or damp. DownTek insulation utilizes nano technology and a proprietary application process to provide water-repellency and both anti-microbial and anti-bacterial protection. A nylon microfiber rip-stop shell also features a water repellent treatment and provides lightweight durability. Insotect Flow technology is used in the Lost Ranger 15 Degree to help eliminate cold spots, regulate the movement of down inside the baffles and offer better body heat distribution. Strategically placed Flow Gate construction eliminates lateral and vertical down shifting by using vertical chambers with GÇ£gatesGÇ¥ to control the position and density of the down insulation. In a traditional sleeping system, the bag lies on top of a sleeping pad. In this configuration, many people find themselves rolling off the pad at night. Plus, the insulation on the bottom of the bag is compressed by the sleeper's weight. Once compressed, the fill loses most of its insulating properties. The Big Agnes Sleep System is different, joining the bag and pad together. The pad slides into a sleeve on the bottom side of the bag, supplying insulation to the otherwise uninsulated bottom of the bag while the top and sides of the bag are insulated like a traditional sleeping bag. This design provides a secure foundation so you can roll, twist and turn freely during the night without ever rolling off your pad. It also prevents the bag from twisting and engulfing you in an
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

The Mother of Comfort for Cooler temps
I just got this bag to complete my Big Agnes sleeping system. It is a 650 fill goose down bag with a fill weight of 17 ounces and bag weight of 3lb 2oz for the Long size. (Reg. size 16 oz. and a measly 2lb 12oz) The bag is very well built, lightweight, and compressible, and comes with a cotton storage sack and a stuff sack. The first thing I noticed when I took it out of it's package was how well the down lofted up and was not clumpy.
Once inside the bag, the large collar seal and draft tube keep you warm. There is also a pillow pocket that can be stuffed with a fleece or your camp pillow, and finally there a loops to hold your sleeping bag liner. This bag works best with any of the BIg Agnes 20" rectangular insulated pads. The integrated pad sleeve means that you will never roll off of the pad. Big Agnes sleeping bags are not insulated on the bottom of the bag, only the upper two thirds of the bag are. This reduces the bags weight substantially and also makes sense,...

Best Sleeping bag EVER!
I've been looking for the perfect bag for my upcoming backpacking trip this summer... something that would keep me warm, yet roomy enough for my "toss n turn" sleeping style. I borrowed this same bag for a few nights from my uncle who claimed it has been his favorite for many years and I LOVED it! I've used it a few times now and have yet to wake up cold or all wrapped up in the bag! I especially love the built-in pad sleeve and the neck collar for those extra cold nights! GREAT BUILD BIG AG!!
great bag
Kept me warm on top of Kili in the middle of a blizzard. GREAT feature with the built in sleeping pad - saves a ton of weight and still keeps you warm and dry. Actually keeps you much warmer because you don't wake up in the middle of the night having slid off of your pad into the puddle of rain and condensation at the bottom of the tent.
