Finally a real sale. Mammoth Mountaineering has their Memorial Day Sale with 20% off everything, including Western Mountaineering bags which are almost always excluded whenever anyplace has a sale.
May 20, 2008 at 4:25 pm #143414120% off WM is golden…….the catch is, they only have five models available, and not all lengths and zip options are available within the limited inventory. Still, these are great deals if you want one of these models.
32° Summerlite (left zip only)
25° Alder SMF (left zip only)
20° Alpinlite (left and right zip available)
20° Ultralite (left and right zip available)
10° Versalite (right zip only)May 20, 2008 at 6:32 pm #1434166Thanks Mike, I just scored a Summerlite for $60 off! This was the exact bag I was looking for. Nice deal.

This and the next page
May 20, 2008 at 7:32 pm #1434182go to mammothgear.com
click "Shop Online" link
type "Western" in the quick searchthat will bring up the WM products
I ordered a bag from them a few weeks ago. No problems.
May 20, 2008 at 7:45 pm #1434187Some of the W.M. products — like the Summerlite — are not tagged under "western". You have to type in the model name specifically. So if "western" doesn't turn up the model you want, try typing in the name by itself instead. Bad website/data management.
May 20, 2008 at 8:37 pm #1434194Thanks for the tip Mike!
May 20, 2008 at 9:10 pm #1434203Thanks for sharing! I have a Marmot bag on order but it hasn't shipped yet, so I might cancel and cough up for one of these.
A question for those of you who already own WM bags. I'm just under 6'1"… do you reckon I would be ok in a 6' bag? I'm not keen on having an extra 5 inches of space at the foot of the bag that I don't need.
May 20, 2008 at 11:53 pm #1434218It depends on how you sleep. Im about 6 feet tall and full stretched out I definitely did not have a whole lot of room lengthwise in the bag. The bag ended up working fine because I slept in more of a curled position. I doubt it would be long enough for someone who sleeps flat, however.
May 21, 2008 at 9:38 am #1434261Flight jacket for $192. Mmmmmmm…….
May 21, 2008 at 10:54 am #1434274Thanks so much for the tip–I finally picked up my summerlite. Now, I'm just waiting for someone to have a 50% off sale on cuben tarps…
May 21, 2008 at 11:37 am #1434283Glad I could help, it really is a great deal so I just had to pick one up myself. I grabed an Ultralite.
May 21, 2008 at 12:18 pm #1434292How bout that. They want $355 for a long WM Alder (WM's site says MSRP is $335) and I can't seem to get the transaction to process.
May 21, 2008 at 1:50 pm #1434313Ordered an Ultralite Long at 11:30 a.m., UPS shipping confirmation came at 2:30 p.m. and on top of the 20% off, they provide free ground shipping. If you use UPS ground, it is essentially overnight to Southern California from Mammoth Lakes. What a deal!
May 21, 2008 at 3:38 pm #1434345Well it looks like the Western Mountaineering bags weren't supposed to be part of the 20% off sale, so now they've caught on and they are back to full price. For those of you who ordered online using the sale price, they are shipping and honoring the sale price. For those of you who were contemplating, well as the saying goes… you snooze, you lose. Congrats to those of you who got your orders in, I doubt you'll see another deal like this for a long time to come.
May 23, 2008 at 3:41 am #1434602Wow, I was lucky. Finally, someone's mistake works in my favor! ;)
