Teton Mammoth Research Paper

Improved Essays
The perfect bag for any family outing, the Teton Mammoth bag is comfortable, warm, and large enough to accommodate almost any camper–and sometimes even two or three. The Mammoth sports a soft cotton flannel lining with a temperature rating of 0 degrees F, helping campers stay cozy in almost any family camping locale. The bag’s shoulder baffle and pair of full-length zipper draft tubes, meanwhile, help keep warmth in and cold out, a must on chilly fall evenings. And campers who really want to insulate will delight in the adjustable mummy hood, which pulls down tight for extra warmth.

But the real attention-getter is the Mammoth’s massive size, which can comfortably hold a pair of adults plus one small child, or as many as four young children

Reviews from Teton Sports Mammoth 0-Degree Sleeping Bag User:

By Crystal A. Rodgers “Crystal” (Texas):
I do a lot of camping in very cold weather and I’m not exactly a tiny person. Neither is my husband. We both fit in this tent very comfortably being the size we are and in 22 degree weather we were VERY warm in this sleeping bag. It was well worth what we paid for it and then some. Before we got this sleeping bag, we didn’t sleep well camping because it would be so cold we would shake all night, but this time other people came out of their tents saying they didn’t get a good nights sleep because it was too cold. And we got good sleep!
So, this sleeping bag is wide enough for bigger folk (200+) and warm enough for REALLY cold weather.

Another cool feature it has is this piece that you can pull over your face and head if you want to, and it has this slight indention to where you can still breath, or tunnel as I call it. So your nose and mouth doesn’t

My husband is 6’6″ and he is able to fit in it deep enough to cover completely up. It is roomy enough for us both to move and sleep very comfortably. It is warm, and I mean WARM!! We used it on our recent 18 day camping trip through 6 states and very different climates. In Utah, we didn’t even zip it up, it’s so warm just as a blanket type set up. In Montana we did challange it’s warmth factor, zipped up, and still we were toasty all night long. When we fisrt took it out of the stuff bag it comes in it didn’t look like it would fit back in. The trick is to NOT roll it, but just stuff it back in like you would a regular bag. It does fit in the stuff bag, and we stuffed it 18 times on this trip (we move from campground to campground when traveling). the stuff bag has compression straps on it too, but we didn’t really use them since we were taking it out and putting it in the stuff bag so regularly. Now that it’s stored for a couple weeks at home, we did compress it after stuffing it. But don’t kid yourself, this is a large, thick bag, so when stuffed it’s pretty good size to transport. We car camp quite a bit more then the average couple and this bag is the best addition to our equipments we’ve made in a long time, I would recommend to

    One of the least known animal species in Arkansas is the elk, a large relative to the white-tail deer. Many people assume that the elk was brought into Arkansas, but it has a long history in the state. Elk were native to the United States, and Arkansas was one of the states that they inhabited. The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission (AGFC) has monitored their population throughout their existence in Arkansas. In the 1840s, the subspecies native to Arkansas, the eastern elk, went extinct.…
