"Believing the temperature ratings on a North Face bag can be hazardous to your health. This bag is rated 20F. It will probably be okay at 40F, but you could get in serious trouble at 20F.

North Face is very tight lipped about exactly what the H."

"Went to Big Bear, slept in a cabin (nights in cabin ranging in the 40-50s) with this bag and was very pleased.

When bundled up it was like described and according to the small form factor, yet when open allowed sufficient room to move around. This sleeping bag is slightly bigger than normal which was what I was aiming for since I like room to move around."
