The Mountain Hardwear Wraith SL -20 Degree Sleeping Bag is specifically designed to withstand the lowest temperatures, and keep you warm.

It is nearly impervious to weather, and features a Conduit SL shell aid insulation, for superior wind and water protection.

The Wraith SL also offers a roomy cut, which provides room for dressing/undressing, or for extra comfort.

The low temperature rating of the Wraith SL is a good indication of how warm it is, due to its 800-fill goose down insulation.

It is recommended for expedition mountaineering or winter camping, and it weighs 1930g.

Mountain Hardwear offers a lifetime warranty.

The Mountain Hardwear Wraith SL -20 Degree Sleeping Bag is another great, but somewhat expensive, sleeping bag from Mountain Hardwear, which is rated at -20 degrees.

Users who have tried it, at that low temperature, report being extremely pleased with its warmth, excellent weather resistance, and space.

Users have reported no problems with the seams or the outer shell of the sleeping bag, and they are very satisfied with the insulation material as well, saying synthetic material can not compete with it.

However, the same zipper problem remains, with them getting caught in the material, and some users have complained that the head compartment is a little smaller than what they were used to.

The Mountain Hardwear Wraith SL is an excellent sleeping bag which offers a lot of room, warmth, and excellent outer shell which guarantees wind and water protection. Although it is more expensive than other models, it is certainly worth it.

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.
