A trip to Badlands National Park
The Badlands National Park in South Dakota is an awe-inspiring destination that never fails to captivate visitors with its otherworldly beauty. Known for its unique rock formations, expansive prairies, and diverse wildlife, the Badlands offers a serene and surreal experience like no other.
It's a place where tranquility reigns, and the natural wonders transport you to a different realm. And for my recent trip to this remarkable national park, I was fortunate enough to have my trusty companion, the DelSur, which made the journey even more enjoyable.
As I ventured into the heart of this remarkable park, I was greeted by a sense of calm and serenity that enveloped me. The vast expanse of rugged terrain, with its jagged peaks and deep canyons, seemed to stretch out endlessly, inviting me to explore its secrets.
On the day of my visit, the temperatures in the Badlands fluctuated dramatically, with a difference of 30 degrees between morning and mid-day. It was essential to be prepared for such weather variations, and that's where my DelSur truly shined. Designed to adapt to changing conditions, the Del Sur served as a versatile midlayer in the chilly morning hours, providing insulation and keeping me comfortably warm, with its intelligent design, seamlessly transformed into a reliable windbreaker, and will shield you from the occasional gusts that swept across the barren landscape. Its adaptability is truly remarkable, effortlessly transitioning from a cozy midlayer to a lightweight jacket as the need arose.
If you're planning a trip to the Badlands National Park, I highly recommend considering the DelSur as an essential part of your gear. Its versatility, adaptability, and comfort make it an ideal choice for exploring this surreal and peaceful destination. Embrace the tranquility, soak in the beauty, and revel in the surreal wonder of one of the most remarkable places on Earth.

I should work for sierra madre. Just spent my first night in my Puffle, Pufflo+, and my del sur jacket. At the time I shot this video it was 33F and dropping was toasty warm(no pants or socks) in my Puffle and super comfy on my pufflo +. I wore the del sur all day while hiking with just a lightweight base layer underneath. If I liked hammocks I would buy a SM hammock rig too. Every product has been great. My only dislike is the air valve on the pufflo. I wish it was a true one way inflation valve like other companies use. The rubber tongue valve isn’t super effective when trying to plug the hole after inflation, but once I finally got it closed I slept great!

I've been wearing it as an outer layer - my new winter jacket (DelSur jacket, no coils). I received it January 2024 just before my vacation to southern FL; I live in TN. Perfect on the plane, love all the discreet pockets, and didn't get hot. Works well in the rain and dries quickly. Now, the following week, it's a lightweight outer layer for single-digit temps and several inches of snow. I really like the hood design with the drawstring and lip, and zipping up for face coverage.
As for fit, I'm a big girl: 5'10", 240#, big chest. I ordered the men's 3X. Nice fit. Comfortable over a tshirt but room for a tshirt and thick hoodie (my snow attire). Sleeves just a bit long but preferred over too short which is usually the case. And I like that the jacket covers my butt. The hidden gloves are a nice bonus (not used in photo).
Loving the jacket and looking forward to using my camping products from Sierra Madre. Quality products with excellent customer service, thank you.

Warm beyond its thickness. Fits nicely with room for a light layer or down sweater underneath. The inner elbow mesh tends to be a little cool on windy days, so I layer over with a windbreaker or under with a more wind proof layer. Great ROM. No pulling across chest or shoulders. Sleeves are lengthy (I have ape arms) and still cover the wrist when arm is fully extended. Thumb slashes well placed and the little finger windbreakers get used on dog walks a lot. Waist pockets are roomy and easily accessed. Chest pockets have more discreet zipper pulls to keep the lines of the jacket clean. I have to take off my gloves to access. But perfect for phone in the urban setting or a power bar and maps when trekking. I’ve been out in a moderate rain and remained warm and dry. The hood fits well over my large bonce and easily takes a heavy toque underneath. This is now a go to jacket when layering for Alberta -30C winters.
The del sur is just the right weight and size for those days when you need something just right!
