Sleeping bag by Kathmandu in VGC. 900g of goose down fill. Muff and zip baffle. Zip extends 3/4s of the way down. My estimate is that its comfort level is around -10C.
This can be a cheap and reliable way of trying out cold weather/snow camping. $145

Bump: price rise to $175 due to global shortage of goose down as a result of flock migration to the poles.

What is the fill rating/power? I know there is 900g of down in it, but what is the down quality (the fill rating/power) is it 600 power fill, 750 power fill, 800 power fill, 850, 900? It should say on the tag. Cheers.

Yeah, if it did I would've reproduced it here.
When this was made the specs were type and weight.

I'm guessing 350 power fill as that was a pretty good fill back in the day.

350? I would assume at least 500. With 900g that thing should be plenty warm and if it "feels" warm at -10C then it would probably be rated to -15C limit. Just a guess of course.

Just by eyeball there's plenty of loft in it. Zipped shut and folded in half it's an armful. In the same ballpark as my Mont Spindrift 750 loft.
