Been looking at a Mountainsmith wisp sleeping bag at the outfitters. Anyone out there have one? It only weighs 1lb 5oz and is good to 30*. Found on review on it and it wasn't as good as the Marmot Helium or the Western Mountainerring bag but it is half the price!

Backpacker magazine did a review about it this year, but I can't remember the month. I don't recall anything bad that they said about it. I'm pretty sure that they said the shell was so thin that you could see the down through the material, but the tester used the bag directly on the ground one night without damage.

There's another thread on down from a few weeks back where someone asked about this same bag. I put a guys email on that thread where you can get the wisp for about half price. I don't remember the thread title but search on mountainsmith and wisp and maybe the name of the other mtnsmth bag.

Just bought one for $179.00 and suported my local outfitter. I like to buy stuff from them even though they might be a couple bucks higher. It would really suck if they went out of bussines and i had to only buy online.
