Re: Looking for a new sleeping bag
Gear Selection Forum
Allow me to share with you the first winter campout I had in the State of Wisconsin was at Devil's Lake State Park. The temps dipped to -25 below. At the time all I had was my Downright Ltd. Tundra 0 degree mummy bag. Needless to say, I was warm, even in those extreme temperatures. My bag weighed 5lb 8ozs. Granted, it may not of been as light as some would prefer, but it still did the job: keeping me warm thru that very frigid weekend.
You are free to do as you wish: I'm just offering some feedback to your original question.
I for one do not believe one needs some BIG name brand name (unless your name happens to be Bob Collins) in order to get a decent sleeping bag. I try and own many bags, with many different types of fills. I test all these in the most brutal extremes nature can dish out. I only speak from actual experience, that's all.
