[pct-l] Pinnacle or the Helium.

[Jeannie Zortman]

Hey Sean,

I know everyone says hike your own hike, but since you asked, I  
absolutely think the Helium was worth the price. I have gone through  
several other bags rated 15 or less even and they are not the same  
warmth as this amazing bag. I did a lot of cowboy camping in this bag  
and could not have done so with a bag of less insulating ability! I  
just wish I hadn't wasted money on cheaper bags that didn't do as  
well, before stepping up to the Helium. I got the idea from yogi's  
books and it was gold for me!
