Exped Wallcreeper PL 40 Degree Sleeping Bag

Saturday, April 11th, 2009

When going light can make all the difference, the Exped Wallcreeper PL 40 Degree Sleeping Bag is one item you’ll want to throw in your pack. This multi-purpose sleeping bag is the ultimate chameleon. You can wear it cinched around your waist as a parka, extend it full length for lounging around camp (or quick bivying with your boots on), or zip it open as a comforter/blanket. When it’s time to bed down, close everything up for the ultimate ultra-light sleeping bag. Zippered armholes give you convenient out of bag access for melting snow and sorting gear without leaving the comfort of your bag. A lightweight ripstop nylon shell, with efficient PrimaLoft Sport water resistant insulation, completes this versatile three season comfort system.

 

The North Face Blaze 20 Degree Sleeping Bag

Saturday, April 11th, 2009

Ideal for camping in a tent or out under the stars, the 20F-rated Blaze Sleeping Bag from The North Face offers exceptional comfort and practical features for every casual outdoor enthusiast. Unlike some sleeping bags that force you to pay for features you’ll never use, the Blaze gives you exactly what you need–including an affordable price tag. The Blaze features a synthetic (and fast-drying) Climashield HL synthetic fill with an overlapping shingle construction that traps air far better than those cheap knock-offs you find on clearance at the discount sporting good stores. The zippered hood can be left open for additional ventilation or you can cinch things up with the one-hand pull cords. Keep in mind that the Blaze has silky taffeta nylon along the shell and the lining, so it’s great for cabin and tent camping–not sleeping outside in slightly damp conditions (although the synthetic Climashield HL will certainly retain some of its insulating properties if wet).
