Marmot Arroyo Sleeping Bag: 30 Degree Down description The Marmot Arroyo 30-Degree Down Sleeping Bag uses high-quality 800+ fill goose down to keep you warm and a ultralight DWR-coated shell to keep it dry. With this combination of materials, the Arroyo takes on chilly, wet spring and fall backpacking trips with ease. This Marmot bag also has ground-level seams to eliminate cold spots and a trapezoidal Nautilus foot box to keep your feet from getting cramped. At a weight of only 1lb 11oz, the Arroyo is easy to pack. Even though its light weight makes you less tired during the day, it still assures a comfortable sleep. |
This is a great bag

I love my Marmot Arroyo sleeping bag. I am 5'-10" about 180 lbs. and the regular size bag is not too small nor too big for me. I tend to sleep warm, so this bag is great for me down to around 20 degrees. I have enough space in the bag to use a fleece liner that adds another 10 to 15 degrees to the temperature rating for colder outings. I love the Velcro-free face muff. This bag packs to the size of my regular-size Therma-Rest Prolite 3 pad in the supplied stuff sack, but I can get it down to the size of a medium-sized cantaloupe in a compression sack. I love this bag. It's light, has a water repellent (but not waterproof) shell, and fits me well. Good price, too.
Delivers as promised

Just got this bag and put it to use right away. 12,500ft, and freezing temps... ice on tent in the morning! Purposely slept only in shorts and shirt to "test" the bag: worked great. Sealed up well around the face, and had more than adequate "wiggle room" for the rest of my restless body.
I can be at one with the cold

The Marmot Arroyo is an excellent 30-degree sleeping bag. Truthfully, I would have preferred the Marmot Hydrogen (with its 850+ down compared to the Arroyo's 800+ down), which is a bit more expensive, but I could not purchase one with a right-side zipper. (The wife prefers a left-sided zipper, I require a right-sided zipper--together we are indeed compatible.) I tend to sleep on the warm side, so above 50 or so degrees, the Arroyo is a bit on the toasty side. My wife, who sleeps on the cold side, loves the bag at any temperature 30 degrees or higher. We found that the 30-degree rating is accurate. I would like to test the bag at under 30-degree conditions just to see how well it performs under pressure. The Arroyo is light--under two pounds. That's a very easy feature to appreciate. It really is a lot of bag for its light weight, and like all of Marmot's upper-end bags, the Arroyo is a joy to compress into a stuff sack or backpack sleeping bag compartment. Recommendations? Bring on some brighter colors! We highly recommend the bag. Eventually, we will purchase winter bags--they, too, will be from Marmot.
