The Mountain Hardwear Ghost SL -40 Degree Sleeping Bag sleeping bag is designed for expeditions to the Arctic, Himalaya and Antarctica.

It can withstand temperatures as low as -40°C, and is nearly impervious to weather, due to its Conduit SL shell.

Not only is it water proof, but the Conduit SL shell is also breathable, windproof, durable and lightweight.

Just like the Wraith SL, the Ghost SL sleeping bag also has a roomy cut, with enough room for dressing/undressing.

Storage sack and stuff sack are included, keeping your sleeping bag safe and tight, when not using it.

Mountain Hardwear offers a lifetime warranty.

The Mountain Hardwear Ghost SL -40 Degree Sleeping Bag is a top-of-the-line sleeping bag from Mountain Hardwear, which users find incredibly warm and roomy.

Users have nothing but good things to say about the Ghost SL, many saying it is the best sleeping bag they have ever had, but also the most expensive.

It offers a lot of space inside, plenty for getting dressed and undressed, but some shorter users say that cold air can be felt at their feet, because the sleeping bag is too large for them.

Also, most users have reported problems with the zippers getting cought in the material, a thing which definetely needs improving. However, the laser seams are amazing, as most users report, and does not have any cold spots.

The Mountain Hardwear Ghost SL is one of the best sleeping bags available, and although pricey, is well worth the money, as all users agree.

Company Info:

In 1993, a small group of people decided to get together and form Mountain Hardwear. In addition to working in the outdoor industry, the Mountain Hardwear founders were avid outdoors people themselves and included Jack Gilbert, Paul Kramer, Mike Wallenfels, Paige Boucher, Ingrid Harshbarger, Clareanne Knittel, Roberta Hernandez, and Alan Tabor. Newly-formed Mountain Hardwear had the challenge of bringing technologically-advanced products together to form a product line.

Mountain Hardwear’s first sponsored athlete, Ed Viesturs, the first American to climb all fourteen 8,000 meter peaks (8000ers), helped develop several of the company’s products. Two of those original products are still in the line today: the Exposure Parka [1] and the down-filled Sub Zero Jacket [2]. Viesturs no longer endorses Mountain Hardwear equipment.

The company currently has over 90 people in their California office, more than 35 sales reps and associates across the United States and Europe, and representatives in Canada, Asia, South America, Australia, and New Zealand.
