[pct-l] Sierra Designs Backcountry Bed 800 3-Season Sleeping Bag

[James Vesely]

SD bag has 20 oz of fill the WM bag has 16 oz fill and all of the 20 oz fill of the SD bag is on top none on the bottom.  You would think that the SD bag would be warmer?   They also make a 27 deg bag that weighs 37 oz but still on the heavy side compared to others.

Interesting product design, however judging on the specs alone it looks heavy.  A 6-foot WM Ultralite is a 20 degree bag weighing in at 29oz and the 6-foot version of the Sierra Designs is 42oz.  The WM is $85 more, however.
