ALPS Mountaineering Pinnacle Quilt

Unlike a mummy bag, this quilt eliminates the back insulation that gets compressed under your body weight, which is ineffective at retaining heat. By removing that material, you save significant weight and bulk, relying on your sleeping pad to provide insulation from the ground instead.

The quilt includes a removable attachment system that secures it to your sleeping pad, which helps keep the quilt in place even if you toss and turn. The fully enclosed footbox and insulated chest baffle also work to seal in warmth, preventing cold air from creeping in while you move.

Yes, the quilt is designed to accommodate users up to 6'2". At 75 inches in length, it provides sufficient coverage for that height, though if you are right at the limit, you may want to ensure your sleeping pad is also long enough to support your full length.

The +35º rating indicates the temperature at which the average person should remain comfortable. It is ideal for three-season backpacking trips in spring, summer, and early fall, but it is not intended for freezing winter temperatures.

It is highly packable. Using the included compression sack, the quilt compresses down to 11 inches by 6 inches, making it easy to slide into the bottom of a standard backpacking pack without taking up excessive room.

Yes, hydrophobic down is treated to resist moisture, meaning it retains its loft and insulating properties better than untreated down if it gets damp from condensation or humid air. While it isn't waterproof, it offers a crucial layer of reliability in variable mountain weather.
