Jim,
This past Thursday thru Saturday was spent by me and a like minded, survival
oriented friend in the mountains doing a cold weather shakedown. We headed up
to the mountains, and did some primitive camping out in the middle of Bigfoot
country at about 3,500 feet. This was a well scouted area, and I had found that
nobody in at least the last year had been in the area but me. One of the items
that we "shook-down" was my Wiggy's Hunter.
When I opened the box that it came in, I could see right off that it appeared
to be one of the best put
together products I had seen in a long time. It just seemed to shout "QUAILITY!"
It
is a 0 degree bag, so I knew it should have no problems with 20 degree nighttime
temps that we expected. (And from what I've heard it probably would have little
problem with temps below 0 degrees.) The temps did indeed get down into the 20s,
but I slept very warm and comfortable in my Wiggy's bag. I just wished it would
have gotten even colder, to give it a real test. But I feel that considering
how warm
I slept this time, as opposed to just about freezing to death with my old bag,
(in temps that were even warmer) that the Wiggy's Hunter will not let me down
even
to
temps
below zero. Also the [compression] stuff sack (that for an extra 20 FRNs
comes with it) is really nice, and worth every penny. Thanks for turning me and
no doubt many others
on to Wiggy's via your book Patriots,
and the ad that now runs on your site.
Also
I must highly recommend expedition weight polypropylene (PolyPro) Long Johns.
They really made sitting around the campfire after the sun went down a pleasure.
Sincerely,
- Gung-Ho
