[pct-l] Quilts versus sleeping bags

[Prapanna Smith]

For years I have used my sleeping back as a quilt.   That is, I don't sleep 
on any down; I just sleep on my ground pad with my sleeping bag draped
over me with the zipper down just below my knees.   Adjustments can be 
easily made during the night and one can really spread out.
