[pct-l] sleeping bags



Mr Judson,

This summer on the PCT I carried a brand new "Marmot Helium".
As you probably know it's a 15 degree bag and it was waaay to 
warm. :) Being that I was doing the Oregon/Washington section 
I figured warmer bag. WRONG! The wx was fantastic.

I have one major gripe about the bag. It uses 900 fill down and
it was not uncommon to have feathers coming through the shell
even given the fact that I carry my down bags in a larger capacity
stuff sack (about 4 times the manufacurer's size).

Not cool.
