Thread: Sleeping Bag Q's

Went back and swapped it for the Comfort 600 (-6 limit). Much much roomier so fits me well with arms in, and quite a bit warmer too. Still packs down nicely but is about 200grams heavier and probably about 1/3 larger when packed down compared to the Ultralite. But i'd prefer the bit of extra weight/size for the comfort/warmth and it's also more aligned with my other gear. As mentioned i've been making do with your regular size el-cheapo synthetic monstrosity that weighs about 2kg's. The Comfort is still about half the packed size of that, if not even less, and much warmer.

So my sleeping system is now a TarpTent StratoSpire 2, Exped Downmat 9 (Long Wide) and an Exped Comfort 600 (Long). Luxury in the bush? For not much weight either - tent (1300grams) + mat (1200grams) + bag (1100grams) = 3600 or 3.6kg's. Oh and don't forget the Exped Air Pillow (50grams haha). I couldn't resist, leave me alone . Tent is also good for two so any hunting buddy can just carry their bag and mat.
