[pct-l] Down vs. Synthetic

[jhebert8@xxxxxxxxxxx (Jason Hebert)]

I planned from the start on taking a synthetic bag on the PCT.  I am from
Washington, I know how much it rains here, and have always used synthetic
for fear of a wet, heavy, worhtless bag.

I have fairly poor circulation in my extremities and sleep colder than most
I think.  I can't ignore the warmth for the weight of down bags.  And the
cozinee loft of a DRY down can't be denied.  I would love some feedback on
down/synthetic use on past thru hikes.

Gratzie Mille,

Jason
