[pct-l] Silk liner

[Gary Minetti]

Yes, indeed.  That was my experience.  I mailed the liner home from Big Bear.

I think this accomplishes the same thing, that is keeping the grime off my sleeping bag and at the same time providing extra warmth.    The thermals also double as pants during cold weather and if it gets real cold I put on my rain pants.   My thermals weigh 8.5 ounces.

Some folk really like them, others think they are just not worth the weight.  Personally I have no experience  with them - as I have never used one.  This is just something you have to try and see what works best for you.
