[QUOTE="ol mike, post: 686930, member: 4683"] I have two lightweight bags that work well in most any conditions -the western mountaineering mitylite and the mountain laurel designs spirit quilt. The WM Mitylite is very lightweight and can be put in a hunting coat pocket -so light it will blow away. The MLD Spirit Quilt is a synthetic quilt that has a strap that goes under your pad to keep you from sliding off your pad. Either one of these can be used down to 40 * depending on the type of shelter -amount of clothes worn etc. when sleeping. Down is impossible to beat in all but the wettest conditions and will last a lifetime where-as synthetics will lose loft over time. A WM down vest and bag will serve you well -use the vest around camp in the AM and PM and when sleeping if needed. Both products are MADE IN AMERICA to the highest standards -you won't go wrong with them. In really cold and damp weather i use both bags together[ quilt on the outside ] -between them and my WM down jacket i can sleep comfortably down to 15-20* in a tarptent contrail. I would have provided links but computer is a little slow.. Good luck -Mike [/QUOTE]
