But 900 FP vs 850 Same amount of down as the Bitterroot but 900 vs 850. So should be equivalent to 5.6 oz of 850 down. Of course, that's al theoretical, since the weights on these jackets vary by close to an oun... |

No new items, they are old ones, hence the close-out I assume. It lists a very large number of items under web specials. I am not sure what you mean with 'newly added items". I don't know when they were added, just mentioning that they have qui... |

Shell? I would take a windshirt. If it really is below 25, snow will be dry enough to slide off a smooth windshirt and you might be able to leave the rainjacket at home. If you are out on a longer trip o... |

That could be just the ticket for 'shivererers' like me I have an older Montbell jacket that seems similar, baffled, very warm. This one adds a much appreciated hood, and drops weight with a lighter fabric and down, sounds perfect! I can't think ... |

20F could be wet If the expected lows are around 20F, than highs could very well be damp, drizzly 30's, leaving you with a near 100% humidity as the temperature drops as well as very wet snow, grass or brush on... |

Enlightened Equipment Revelation X Quality: The sewing is very neatly done, I have not looked super close at the fabric but from a casual glance I don't see any blemishes. Nice soft hand. Fit: I have a 6'6&qu... |

Golite Hex 3 I was surprised to see we fit comfortably with our family of 4, while using the nest. By hanging it from a line between two trees, we have room for a double bag in the center and no pole to be knocke... |

L.L. Bean Ultralight 850 Down Jacket I returned the L tall I had ordered, as the sleeves were too short. I ended up with a Montbell in XL which had longer sleeves and was no more baggy than the L tall LL Bean. |
