    20° Burrow

    I recently purchased a 20° Burrow and have been kind of bummed because I'll have to wait until late fall to give it a test run. But then I thought "wait a minute you idiot," you have daily access to a walk-in sub-zero freezer. Yesterday I brought the Burrow into work and spent about half of my 30-min. lunch break in the sub-zero. Now, 15 minutes in a sub-zero freezer doesn't compare to real world conditions but I was not cold at all in there. Plus I managed to give a good jump-scare to our Frozen Foods supervisor who had it coming.

    Thanks HG!

    Now I just need to figure out a way to hang my hammock in the sub-zero so I can test out the bottom quilt.

    Hahaha! We're glad you got to test it out in the freezer. We have an unfinished basement, which also happens to be my man cave, that gets pretty drafty. I use my 40 degree Burrow all the time down there. The possibilities are endless!

    That's so funny, I was thinking of doing this EXACT thing where I work! We've got a -20° that I've been tempted by for a while now that's got a few perfect spots to rig up to lol.
