Marmot, CWM Review By the Everest GearGal

(-40°C) and is insulated with 900 fill goose down. Whether you are climbing Everest or making a winter summit attempt of Mt. Washington this bags loft won’t let you down. 

The stretch tricot baffles provide the CWM with superior strength, durability and longevity. A 9-baffle chest section runs vertically through the core of the bag maximizing down coverage and preventing shifting and clumping that could otherwise cause cold spots. The hood chamber consists of a 6-baffle construction and the down stays close to the feet due to an 11-baffle foot box. The foot box is also reinforced to withstand extra abuse from boot liners and hot water bottles. All of these features, including a Velcro® free down filled collar work together to keep the warm air in the bag.  While the ground level side seems and down filled draft tube keep the cold air out. 

The CWM is strong, durable and warm, but it also has a few luxury items making it stand out from the crowd. Details such as zipper guards, “feely” draw cords to prevent nighttime fumbling, and a Velcro®-free face muff to protect against zippers and draw cords put this bag in a realm of its own. The only thing you’ll need to worry about on your next expedition with this bag is how to come up with an excuse to get the folks in the other tent to make the coffee. (As the CWM also has a hidden draft tube pocket for the alarm.)
