Thread: Sleeping bag advice

They don’t make it anymore. macpac express 400. I think the Macpac Epic has replaced it.

Mont Bell are ok, I brought the biggest they make but found it way too tight.
Also not as well made as the Domex Superlight I have now.

I have used a fairydown Polar for years but it requires a Nepalese porter to carry it for me.
Bought a Halo this year. Very impressed $585. Buy one look after it, no porter required. Get the 1.1 kg one. With a bivey bag total weight 2kg which means it can be carried instead of an emergency shelter at this time of year. Mr Duley designed it big enough to wear a jacket inside it when it is really cold

I bought an Epic 600 on sale. It’s Very good.

Arm twisting of Ashley at Hamills Rangiora.

I bought a one planet sleeping bag. Aussie made for 440 I believe.

It's a minus 4 rated but I hunt CNI so it works well.

I quite rate it but have never done a mid winter umakarikari hunt yet so will do a report then

Ive got a domex halo and superlite very good bags man, and they pack down to fuck all aswell. Plus 1 vote for me
